Simple Man

Lyrics

You can take a boy out of the field But that don't make him clean You've made my life easier, baby But that don't make it any less obscene Just `cause you're 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 Well, I ain't askin for all of your love Give me what ya can And set me free You screamed and cried all night long Lord, you're killing me I never meant to put you down And never gave you any reason to grieve Sometimes when I feel so boxed in I wanna go and take a ride Grabbed the keys and my cigarettes And disappeared into the night Lord I'm a simple man Ain't too much I need I ain't askin' for all of your love Gimme what you can And set me free Lord c'mon set me free You lead this old horse to a bar And you can buy me a drink You 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 how I never Listen to my own advice Lord, I'm a simple man Ain't too much I need Well, I ain't askin for all of your love Give me what ya can And set me free I ain't askin' for all of your love I ain't askin' for all your love I ain't askin' for all of your love Give me what you can And set me free
