Simple Man (Originally by Lynyrd Skynyrd) Songtext
von Deftones

Mama told me when I was young
Come sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely to what I say
Oh 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
And be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Won't you do this, If you can?
Forget your lust for 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
And be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Won′t you do this, for me son
If you can?

Oh don′t you worry, you'll find yourself
Follow you heart and nothing else
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
And be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Won′t you do this, for me son, If you can?

And be a simple kind of man
And be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Won't you do this, If you can?

And be a simple kind of man
And be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
