Lynyrd Skynyrd - Simple Man (with lyrics)

enjoy

lyrics

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 will help you some sunny day.
Take your time... Don't live too fast,
Troubles will come and they will pass.
Go find a woman and you'll find love,
And don't forget son,
There is someone up above.

(Chorus)
And be a simple kind of man.
Be something you love and understand.
Be a simple kind of man.
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 if you try.
All that I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.

(Chorus)

Boy, don't you worry... you'll find yourself.
Follow you heart and nothing else.
And you can do this if you try.
All I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.

(Chorus)

This song goes out to My Son 9/18/90- 8-27-10 <3

[Brandon Harvey]

Before my mother died, she gave me the song lyrics to this in this goofy big classified document thing she stole from work. Told me this would change me, and I didn't get it at the time. Now, god damn man. Miss you, this shit has changed my life.

My little guy is only 7. I made him listen to this. He opens a door for me, wont let me get in the car unless he opens and shuts the door(ladies first). He gets this song...and so much more. He is my life.
