Simple Man

And I, I am a simple man

doing the best i can

just tying to get by

and i , thought i'd get to heaven

by driving through hell

but i passed it on by

and i am a simple man

lord i am a simple man

and i , made a lot of wrongs

but i'm trying to make it right

by the end of my life

and i, been knocked to the ground

people trying to hold me down

but i finally saw the light

and i, had to learn self control

had to search for my soul

and i found it one night

and i, damn near lost my life

more than a couple times

man, i'm lucky to be alive

and i, loved a lot of ladies

some had my babies

but i just turned and walked away

and i, seen a lot of good folks die

some were unjustified

but i had to say goodbye
