Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
Ah, yeah, it will
[Verse 2]
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 someone up above
[Verse 3]
And be a simple kind of man
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?
Then you can
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
And be a simple kind of man
And be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Won't you do this for me, son, if you can?
If you can?
[Verse 6]
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
[Verse 7]
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?
