[Verse 1]
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"
Ah, yeah we, yes we
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
And be a simple kind of man
And 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 do it only if you can
[Verse 3]
Forget your lust for the rich man's gold
All that you need now is in your soul
And you can do this, oh baby, if you try
'Cause all that I want from you my son is just to be satisfied
