one year ago
3000 miles away
i picked up my ukelele
and i started to play
and every single day
no matter what came my way
i picked up my ukelele
and i started to play
some folks they try to change the world
some folks go to church to pray
some folks struggle to make a living
me i write a song everyday
one year down
and many more to go
i'll write about my friends
and the city all aglow
ill write about what i'm feeling
i'll write about what i know
one year down
and many more to go
some folks have fun at parties
some folks like to listen to the DJ
some folks they make a lot of money
me i write a song a day
one year ago
in a bedroom in LA
i picked up my ukulele
and i started to play
from the san francisco bay
down to blue jay way
i picked up my ukulele
and i started to play
some folks struggle to find meaning
in a universe made of chaos and decay
some folks have orchestras and power
me i write a song a day
