Simple Man Lyrics

(Lynyrd Skynyrd)

Mama told me when I was young
Come sit beside me, my only son
Won't you listen to what I say.
And if you do this
It will help you some day.
Take it slow dear... Don't live too fast,
Troubles will come and troubles will pass.
You'll find a woman and you'll find love,
Oh just remember my son,
There is someone up above.

[Chorus:]
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?

Don't you worry... you'll find yourself.
Follow you heart and nothing else.
And you can do this if you try.
All 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?

Cause I'll be a simple kind of man.
I'll be something you love and understand.
