lyrics

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 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

  Be a simple kind of man
 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 mans 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 
Be something that you love and understand
 Baby, be a simple kind of man
 Oh won't you do this for me, son, 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 
Be something you love and understand 
Baby, be a simple kind of man 
Oh wont you do this for me, son, if you can? 
So baby be a simple, be a simple man 
Oh wont you do this for me, son, if you can?
