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
Oh, 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
And be a simple kind of man
Oh, be somethin'
You'll love and understand
Baby, 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
And be a simple kind of man
Oh, be somethin'
You'll love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Won't you do this for me, son
If you can
Boy, don't you worry
You'll find yourself
Follow your heart
And nothing else
And you can do
This if you try
All I want for you, my son
Is to be satisfied
And be a simple kind of man
Oh, be somethin'
You'll love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Won't you do this for me, son
If you can
Baby, be a simple
Be a simple man
Oh, be somethin'
You'll love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
