The snobbery of (most?) poets would suggest that song lyrics are not poetry. I disagree. Lyrics are a subset of poetry, not an occasional overlap.
Further, a definition I've used for years: poems are just songs we've forgotten the tune to.
Anyway. Exhibit A: this by Thomas Campion, 1567 to 1620, songwriter and luteist. (Though books will call him "poet and composer".)
