Simple Man lyrics

Mama told me

when I was young

"Come 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, oh, yeah."

"Oh, 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."

"And be a simple kind of man.

Oh, be somethin' 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 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."

"And be a simple kind of man.

Oh, be somethin' you love and understand.

Baby, be a simple kind of man.

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

(Oh, yes I will.)

"Boy, don't you worry

you'll find yourself.

Follow your heart

and nothing else.

And you can do this, oh babe, if you try.

All that I want for you my son, is to be satisfied."

"And be a simple kind of man.

Oh, be somethin' you love and understand.

Baby, be a simple kind of man.

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