You can take a boy out of the filth but that don't make him clean
You could make my life easier baby but that don't make it any less I've
seen
Just cause your acting so nice don't mean you'll get a thing from me
Don't throw your pennies in the wishing well cause what you get is what
you see
Lord I'm a simple man Ain't too much I need
I ain't asking for all of your love just give me what you can and set me
free
You scream and cry all night long Lord you're killing me
I never meant to put you down I never gave you any reason to grieve
sometimes when I feel so boxed in I want to go and take a ride
Grab the keys and my cigarettes and disappear into the night
Ahh, C'mon and set me free
(Chords same as verse)
You can lead this old horse to a bar you can buy me a drink
you can lead me just about anywhere sometimes I'm just too tired to think
Never took anything from you that I couldn't return twice
Never understand why I never listened to my own advice
I ain't asking for all of your love I ain't asking for all your love
I ain't asking for all of your love just give me what you can and set me
free
