Текст песни Simple Man (Rock version) - Shinedown

Well, mama told me
When I was young
Said, 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 it will

Oh, take your time
Don't live too fast
Troubles will come
And they will pass
You'll find a woman
And you'll find love
And don't forget that
There is a someone up above

And be a simple kind of man
And be something you'll love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can?

Don't get your lust
From the rich man's gold
All that you need now
Is in your soul
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
And be something you'll love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can?

Oh, 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
Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can?
So baby, be a simple, be a simple man
Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can?
