Simle man
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 will help you some sunny day
Take your time... Don't live too fast
Troubles will come and they will pass
You 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
Be something you love and understand
Baby Be a simple kind of man
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 OH baby if you try
All that I want for 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?
Boy 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
Yeah baby, Be a simple kind of man
won't you do this for me son
if you can
