A Simple Man Lyrics

a simple man.
just move from new york city.
a simple life.
never made it.
with iron sides,
a black hat and a mood that matches.
a simple man.
on the level.
he placed a bet and lost it.
not one to pay so he chocked it,
but missed the mark.
his girl got hit.
didn't live through the night,
that's when he lost it.
that's when he lost it.
keep moving, keep moving on.
keep moving, keep moving on.
keep moving, keep moving on.
keep moving, keep moving on.
keep moving, keep moving on.
keep moving, keep moving on.
there's hell to pay.
why not buy off the devil.
no turning back.
keep moving on.
on the day that bank got help up.
two men, two guns and no luck.
never wrong when you're in the right.
bet black, see white.
keep moving, keep moving on.
keep moving, keep moving on.
keep moving, keep moving on.
keep moving, keep moving on.
keep moving, keep moving on.
keep moving, keep moving on.
no turning back.
no holding on.
nothing to see.
keep moving on.
keep moving on.
an empty heart's an empty box.
far from me, but not my thoughts.
keep moving, keep moving on.
keep moving, keep moving on.
keep moving, keep moving on.
keep moving, keep moving on.
keep moving, keep moving on.
keep moving, keep moving on.
no turning back.
no holding on.
nothing to see.
keep moving, keep moving on.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
