Simple Man

You can take a boy out of the filth But that don't make him clean You could make my life easier, baby But that don't make it any less obscene And just 'cause you're acting so nice Don't mean you'll get a thing from me Don't throw your pennies in the wishing well 'Cause what you get is what you see Lord, I'm a simple man Ain't too much I need I ain't asking for all of your love Give me what you can and set me free You screamed and cried all night long Lord, you're killing me I never meant to put you down And never gave you any reason to grieve Sometimes when I feel so boxed in I wanna go and take a ride Grab the keys and my cigarettes And disappeared into the night Lord, I'm a simple man Ain't too much I need And I ain't askin' for all of your love Gimme what you can and set me free Lord, set me free You lead this old horse to a bar And you can buy me a drink You lead me just about anywhere Sometimes I'm just too tired to think Never took anything from you That I couldn't return twice Never understand how I never Listen to my own advice Lord, I'm a simple man Ain't too much I need I ain't askin' for all of your love Give me what ya can and set me free I ain't askin' for all of your love I ain't askin' for all your love I ain't askin' for all of your love Give me what you can And set me free
