가사

[Verse 1]
Sweet summer evenings, hot wine and bread
Sharing your supper, sharing your bed
Simple joys have a simple voice
It says, why not go ahead?
[Verse 2]
And wouldn't you
Rather be a left-handed flea
A crab on a slab at the bottom of the sea
Than a man who never learns how to be free
Not till he's cold and dead
[Verse 3]
Well, I'll sing you the story of a sorrowful lad
Had everything he wanted, didn't want what he had
He had wealth and pelf and name and fame
And all of that noise
He didn't have none of those simple joys
[Verse 4]
His life seemed purposeless and flat
Aren't you glad you don't feel like that?
[Verse 5]
So he ran from all the deeds he'd done
He ran things he'd just begun
He ran from himself, which is mighty far to run
Out into the country where he'd played as a boy
He knew he had to find him some simple joys
[Verse 6]
He wanted someplace warm and green
We all could use a change of scene
[Verse 7]
Sweet summer evenings so full of sound
Gaining a lover, you're gaining a pound
Simple joys have a simple voice
It says take a look around
[Verse 8]
And wouldn't you
Rather be a left-handed flea
A crab on a slab at the bottom of the sea
A newt on the root of a banyan tree
Than a man that never learns how to be free
Not till he's underground
[Verse 9]
Sweet summer evenings, sapphire skies
Feasting your belly, you're feasting your eyes
Simple joys have a simple voice
It says time is a living's prize
[Verse 10]
And wouldn't you
Rather be a left-handed flea
A crab on a slab at the bottom of the sea
A newt on the root of a banyan tree
A fig on a twig in Galilee
Than a man who never learns how to be free
Not till the day he, not till the day he
Not till the day, not till the day he dies
