Simple Man - Live At Fox Theatre, Atlanta, 1976

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'll help you some sunny day (Oh yeah)
 Oh 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
 Oh be somethin' you love and understand
 Baby be a simple kind of man
 Oh won't you do this for me son if you can?
 Forget your lust
 For the rich man's gold
 All that you need
 Is in your soul
 And you can do this
 If you try
 All that I want for you my son is to be satisfied
 And be a simple kind of man
 Oh be somethin' you love and understand
 Baby be a simple kind of man
 Oh won't you do this for me son if you can? (Oh yes I will)
 Boy don't you worry
 You'll find yourself
 Follow your heart
 And nothing else
 And you can do this oh babe, if you try
 All that I want for you my son, is to be satisfied
 And be a simple kind of man
 Oh be somethin' you love and understand
 Baby be a simple be a simple man
 Oh won't you do this for me son if you can?
 Baby be a simple be a simple man
 Oh be somethin' child you love and understand
 Baby be a simple be a simple man
 Won't you do this for me son if you can? (Oh yeah)

 Don't you know don't you know
