Simple Man Lyrics by Eric Tagg

Smilin’ Memories

0

Yeah
People try to tell me they don't understand
Why I do the things I do
All you got to know is that I'm just a man
But chances are they do them too
I got to live to keep myself from dying
Got to laugh to keep myself from crying
I don't do too much thinking 'bout why
Yeah, yeah
Used to be the boy with all the cosmic rhymes
Questioning your world aren't real
You got the insight into space and time
It just don't change the way you feel
I got to move to keep from sinking down
Got to groove and losing ground, down
'Til I lay me down and die
'Cause I'm a simple man who sings a simple song
About love and the way I feel
And they ain't gonna tell me that I'm right or wrong
I simply livе and try to make it real
I'm a simple man
A simplе man
'Cause I'm a simple man who sings a simple song
About love and the way I feel
And they ain't gonna tell me that I'm right or wrong
I simply live and try to make it real
I'm a simple man
I never tried relating to an 8 to 5
So business men don't bother me
Find a simple woman with some peace of mind
And take her place to pen my scene
I got to live to keep myself from dying
Got to laugh to keep myself from dying
Until I lay me down and die
'Cause I'm a simple man who sings a simple song
About love and the way I feel
And they ain't gonna tell me that I'm right or wrong
I simply live and try to make it real
I'm a simple man
I'm a simple man who sings a simple song
About love and the way I feel
And they ain't gonna tell me that I'm right or wrong
I simply live and try to make it real
I'm a simple man
'Cause I'm a simple man who sings a simple song
And I love, I love
And they ain't gonna tell me that I'm right or wrong
I simply live and try to make it real
I'm a simple man who sings a simple song
About love
They ain't gonna tell me that I'm right or wrong
