Simple Man (Acoustic)

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, 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, son, there is someone up above"
 "And be a simple kind of man
 Oh, 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"
 "Forget your lust for 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
 Oh, 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"
 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 baby, if you try
 All that I want for you, my son, is to be satisfied"
 "And be a simple kind of man
 Oh, 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"
 Baby, be a simple, be a simple man
 Oh, be something you love and understand
 Baby, be a simple kind of man
