Shinedown - Simple Man - Live Acoustic from Kansas City [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Well, Mama told me when I was young
Said, "Sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely to what I say
And if you do this, it'll help you some sunny day"
Ah, yeah we, yes we

[Verse 2]
Oh, take your time, don't live too fast
Troubles will come and they will pass
You'll find a woman, and you'll find love
And don't forget that there is a someone up above

[Chorus]
And be a simple kind of man
And be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can?
Go ahead, take it all home

[Verse 3]
Forget your lust for the rich man's gold
All that you need now is in your soul
And you can do this, oh baby, if you try
'Cause all that I want from you my son is just to be satisfied

[Chorus]
And be a simple kind of man
And be something you love and understand
So baby, be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can

[Bridge]
If you can
If you can
So do it only if you can
Do it only if you can
Do it only if you can, yeah
So do it only if you can

[Verse 4]
Oh, don't you worry, you'll find yourself
Follow your heart, and nothing else
And you can do this, oh baby, if you try
'Cause all that I want from you, my friend, is just to be satisfied

[Chorus]
And be a simple kind of man
And be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can?

[Outro]
So baby, be a simple, be a simple man
And oh, won't you do this for me son, if you can?

[Spoken]
Thank you so much
What do we say, one more for the road?
