Lyrics: Gabriel Kelley
Music: Timothy Blake Bowlin
This is my biggest treasure
My great prized possession
The only one thing I truly own
So if there’s no pot of gold at the end of this here rainbow
No record man you’ll never own my song
My craft is my profession
My passion is tradition
When words will die this song keeps living on
Well I won’t sell one piece of me for some no go investment
No record man will ever own my song
You wanna sell the stories of my life
In exchange for a promise and a song
But promises are made to be broken
That aint never been enough to get by on
My melody’s confession
Is a lifetime of transgression
The lessons in this life dont steer you wrong
And there’s a million tunes to choose from but just not this one of mine
No record man you’ll never own my song
And there’s a million tunes that you can buy just not this one of mine
Mr record man you won’t ever own my song
