Simple Man (Lynnyd Skynyrd) 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
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 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 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 something you love and understand Baby, be a simple kind of man Oh, 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 for you, my son, is to be satisfied
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
