I Am A Simple Man

I don't know why you want to start with me I ain't done nothin' far as I can see And for one i've been working so hard why don't you give me a break I know that lately things ain't been so good I'll make it up just like i told ya i would In time but i want to sit down to ease this ol' back ache Chorus: you say your having trouble figuring me I don't 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 and my fryin' pan Don't seem so hard to 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 if your just into fightin' why don't you give it a rest I don't know what else I can say to you I'm doing everything I know to do And I can't give you anything more when i'm givin' my best Chorus: you say your having trouble figuring me I don't 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 and my fryin' pan Don't seem so hard to me to understand I am a simple man I want a place I can lay my head Soft woman and a warm bed A little time off before i'm dead I'm just a simple man Chorus: you say your having trouble figuring me I don't 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 and my fryin' pan Don't seem so hard to me to understand I am a simple man
