Simple Man (VanCon 2015)

Mama told me when I was young,
Come sit beside me, my only son,
And listen closely to what I say.
And if you do this
It will help you some sunny day.

Take your time… don’t live too fast,
Troubles will come and they will pass.
Go find a woman and you’ll find love,
And don’t forget son,
There is someone up above.

And be a simple kind of man.
Be someone you love and understand.
Baby, be a simple, be a simple man.
Please, son, if you do this?
If you can?

Don't waste your time on the rich man’s gold
All that you need is in your soul,
And you can do this, oh baby, if you try.
All that I want for you, my son,
Is to be satisfied.

And be a simple kind of man.
Be someone you love and understand.
Baby, be a simple kind of man.
Won’t you do this for me, son,
If you can?

Boy, don’t you worry… you’ll find yourself.
Follow you heart and nothing else.
And you can do this, oh baby, if you try.
All that I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.

And be a simple kind of man.
Be someone you love and understand.
Baby, be a simple, be a simple man.
Won’t you do this for me, son,
If you can?
