I Am a Simple Man Lyrics

Simple Man
By Ricky Van Shelton
I dont know why you want to start with me
I ain't done nothing as far as I can see
Aand I'm worn out from working too hard
Wwhy dont you give me a break.
I know that lately things aint been so good
I'll make it up just like I told you I would
But I'm tired and I wanna sit down
To ease the sore backache
Chorus:
You say your havin trouble figuring me
I dont believe I'm such a mystery
Baby what you get is what you see
I am a simple man
I want a job and a piece of land
Three squares in the frying pan
Dont seem so hard for me to understand
I am a simple man
You say we got some things to talk about
A lot of problems that we need to work out
But we just end up fighting
Wwhy dont you give it a rest.
I dont know what else I can say to you
I'm doing everything I know to do
And I cant give anything more
When I'm giving my best
Bridge:
I want a place I can lay my head
a soft woman and a warm bed
a little time off before I'm dead
I'm just a simple man
Chorus & Fade
