Simple Man Lyrics

Shinedown
Leave a Whisper (re-release2004)
Simple Man
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 will help you some sunny day.
Oh Take your time... Don't live too fast,
Troubles will come, and they will pass.
You'll find a woman, Oh yeah, and you'll find love,
And don't forget that,
There is someone up above.

(Chorus)
And be a simple kind of man.
Be a something, you love and understand.
And be a simple kind of man.
Won't you do this for me son,
If you can?

Forget your lust, for 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 for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.

(Chorus) And be a simple kind of man.
Be a something, you love and understand.
And be a simple kind of man.
Be a something, you love and understand.

And be a simple kind of man.
Oh, 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 I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.

(Chorus) And be a simple kind of man,
Be a something, you love and understand
Baby be a simple, kind of man
Oh won't you do this for me son,
if you can?
Baby be a simple, kind of man
Be a simple man
Be something you love and understand.
