Well I went down to a Music City function

Where I just heard a song that I had to howl out

My lawyers told my to proceed with caution

Or I'd make a whole lot of songwriters mad

Uh-huh

And I said

Hey John Michael Montgomery won't mind

If I take a song and make it mine all mine

Like I did so many times with old Tim McGraw's

Yeah I never heard anything sound so fine

Mind if I borrow one or two of your lines

Well I stole it once stole it twice

I STOLE it from a writer on Music Row

Well he just moved to town and he didn't know

About ASCAP, SESAC, or BMI

So he might as well kiss his song goodbye

I had my number two pencil going about a mile a
minute

Till I had his ideas all written down

And I knew I really went and did it

When the police came and hauled my butt downtown

And I said

Hey John Michael Montgomery won't mind

If I steal a song and make it mine all mine

Like I did so many times with Tim McGraw's

Yeah I never heard anything sound so fine

Mind if I borrow one or two of your lines

Well I stole it once stole it twice

I STOLE that song and I must confess

When I went to court I plead no contest

Got a big fat lip and two black eyes

Never should have messed with his copyright

Yeah

I told the judge I had writers block but he
hauled my butt away

And now it hurts too much to laugh about the song
I stole that day

When I said

Hey John Michael Montgomery won't mind

If I steal a song and make it mine all mine

Like I did so many times with Tim McGraw

Yeah I never heard anything sound so fine

Mind if I borrow one or two of your lines

So I stole it once stole it twice

I STOLE it from a writer on Music Row

Well he just moved to town and he didn't know

About ASCAP, SESAC, or BMI

So he might as well kiss his song goodbye
