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 yeah 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 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 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
Oh 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 something you love and understand Baby be a simple kind of man Oh won't you do this for me son if you can
And baby be a simple real simple man Oh be something you love and understand Baby be a simple kind of man
