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?
Then 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?
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?
