My Mama told me when I was young
Said sit beside me,my only son
And listen closely to what I say
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,you'll find love
And don't foget that there is someone up above
Don't get your lust from 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 from you,my son,is to be satisfied
And be a simple kind of man
And be something you love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Won't you do this for me,son,if you can
,don't you worry,you'll find yourself
Follow your heart and nothing else
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
And be something you love and understand
Baby be a simple,be a simple man
Won't you do this for me,son,if you can
