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.

  Ohh 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.  

(Chorus)

 And be a simple kind of man. 

Oh be somethin you'll love and understand.

 Baby be a simple kind of man.

 Won't you do this for me son, If you can?

  Forget your lust for the 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. 

  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.

 Oh be somethin you'll love and understand.

 Baby be a simple kind of man.

 Won't you do this for me son, If you can?

 So baby, be a simple, be a simple man 

 Oh, wont you do this for me son, if you can

Älskar låten och texten eftersom det får mig att tänka på min älskling <3 

Han spelade den för mig när jag var hemma hos honom för första gången :)

Du fyller mitt liv med så mycket ljus och lycka, jag önskar att du kunde förstå hur mycket.

Du är magisk <3 Underbara människa, jag älskar dig <3
