Simple Man

Well, Momma told me

When I was young

Said sit beside me, my only son

And listen closely to what I say

And if you do this, it'll help you some sunny day (ahhh ya)



Oh, take your time

Don't live too fast

Troubles will come

And they will pass

You'll find a woman

And you'll find love

And don't forget that there is someone up above



And be a simple kind of man

Oh, be something you love and understand

Baby, be a simple kind of man

Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can



Forget your lust

For rich man's gold

All that you need now

Is in your soul

And you can do this, oh baby, if you try

All that I want from you my son, is to be satisfied



And be a simple kind of man

Be something you love and understand

Baby, be a simple kind of man

Won't you do this for me son, if you can



Oh, don't you worry

You'll find yourself

Follow your heart

And nothing else

And you can do this, oh baby, if you try

All that I want from you my son, is to be satisfied



And be a simple kind of man

Be something you love and understand

baby, be a simple kind of man

Oh, won't you do this for me, son, if you can

So baby, be a simple be a simple man

Oh, won't you do this for me, son, if you can
