The Simple Life lyrics

I want the simple life.

I need the simple life.

Make mine easy and make mine light.

I take my coffee black, I don't want it white.

I've got an unsophisticated appetite.

All I want is the simple life.

No frustrations, no complications,

no temptations, no obligations,

no exploitations, no confrontations,

no justifications, no explanations,

just a walk by the water

beneath the beautiful moon so bright.

I'm gonna build us a cabin by a BC lake,

I'll butter your potato if you grill my steak.

We'll go to bed early and we'll get up late.

I don't need no fence and I don't need no gate.

I want the simple life.

I need the simple life.

I'll be your sugar daddy, you'll be my sweet wife,

laughin' and kissin', blissin' out for life.

Let's go! We could ride the rainbow

if we live the simple life.

Simple life, ooh, simple life.

Dancin' like kids under the moonlight,

actin' like fools never felt so right.

Come on, take a walk with me 

and live the simple life, ah, it's so easy.

I told you, baby, it's so easy, 

no trouble, no strife.

Begin to walk in the simple life.

Just you and me, little woman, 

just you and me livin' the simple life.

I said the simple life (the simple life).

I'm thinkin' simple life.

It ain't hard, just a simple life.

Ah, I want a simple life.

Ah, I want a simple life (simple life).

Ah, I want a simple life (simple life).

I want a simple life.
