My 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 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 Be something You 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 Be something You love and understand Baby, be a simple Kind of man Won't you do this for me, son? If you can? Now be a simple Kind of man Be something You love and understand
