Give Me the Simple Life Julie London

[Verse]
I don't believe in frettin' and grievin'
Why mess around with strife?
I never was cut out to step and strut out
Give me the simple life

[Verse]
Some find it pleasant dining on pheasant
Those things roll off my knife
Just serve me tomatoes and mashed potatoes
Give me the simple life

[Bridge]
A cottage small is all I'm after
Not one that's spacious and wide
A house that rings with joy and laughter
And the ones you love inside

[Verse]
Some like the high road, I like the low road
Free from the care and strife
Sounds corny and seedy, but yes, indeedy
Give me the simple life

[Bridge]
I'm crazy about sleep
Can't do without sleep
Give me the simple life
