Simple Man

1. Mama told me, when I was young

Come sitbeside me, my only son

And listen closely, to what I say.

And if you do this

It will help you some sunny day.

2. Ohh take your time... Don't live too fast,

Troubles will come, and they will pass.

Go find a woman and you'll find love,

And don't forget son,

There is someone up above.

R: And be a simple kind of man.

Oh be somethin you'll love and understand.

Baby be a simple kind of man.

Won't you do this for me son,

Am

If you can?

3. Forget your lust for the rich man's gold

All that you need is in your soul,

And you can do this if you try.

All that I want for you my son,

Is to be satisfied.

R: And be a simple kind of man...

4. Boy, don't you worry... you'll find yourself.

Follow you heart and nothing else.

And you can do this if you try.

All I want for you my son,

Is to be satisfied.

R: And be a simple kind of man...
