Songs About Writing

Here's part 2 of 3 in a miniseries of posts featuring songs with the famously misnamed "3 R's" (Reading, Writing, and Arithmetic). In the first of the "3 R's" which does not actually start with an "R," we have a set of songs with the word "Write" or "Writing" (or some other derivative) in their titles.
