What are some songs that are about the singers themselves?
I can think of:
Loretta Lynn - Coal Miner's Daughter Dolly Parton - Coat Of Many Colors Dixie Chicks - Not Ready To Make Nice, The Long Way Around
And then songs about the singer, but not written by them:
Faith Hill - Mississippi Girl

Jeff Bates - "Rainbow Man" Craig Morgan - "Paradise"
Both songs aren't 100% accurate but I know both songs were written with real lifetime experiences for both.

A lot of songs should fit this category, +/- a little biographical embroidering...
If meant for someone's extended life history vs. specific situations they wrote to sing about, then another -- Toby Keith, Honkytonk U
