Simple Man Lyrics
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
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
Be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Won't you do this for me son
If you can
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
Be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Won't you do this for me son
If you can
Follow you heart and nothing else
And you can do this if you try
All I want for you my son
Is to be satisfied
Be something you love and understand
Baby, be a simple kind of man
Won't you do this for me son
If you can
Basically, live your life so that you'll love yourself for everything you do. Don't worry about worldly things, they come and go. Only do what you want to do, follow your heart, and be proud of all of your accomplishments.
what? no one wrote a comment about this song? this song is one of the best lynyrd skynyrd songs around. its a great song to play pool with and a great driving song. and if you listen to the words carefully you can kinda catch the drift of what the song is about, its about how to live and how to love. that's what i get outta it. long live Lynyrd skynyrd! long live rock and roll!!!
i cant believe so many people on here say they 1st heard it from a movie soundtrack. come on peoplke were you all born and raised in a friggin cave? skynyrd will never die. not even a plane crash can kill them off...rock on!
@mossyoak83 No, we weren't. Some of us aren't living in the southern states of the USA and breeding with out siblings. In metropolitan parts of the world, the only Skynyrd song that ever gets played is their biggest hit.

i just want to say that this song helped me in so many ways .while i was in iraq this song help me remember i have to be strong to stay alive so as to come home to my famaly.on top of the fact that it is the best song ever written.
This song has played a major role in my life. Anytime I ever felt like something wouldnt happen or work out for the best, this song always reminded me to be optimistic and try to see the good in life.
This one makes me cry sniff. Seriously there have been times in my life (loss of a job, failure of some other sort) where this song has really gotten me back on track. It reminds you me that all the stuff we collect doesn't mean a thing in the end. Only your integrity, your friends, and your soul matter. Don't lose them.
Any only child should recognise the lyrics of this song here. For me, many's the time that my mam and I have sat and talked like that. An amazing song and one that I can seriously relate to.
Great song. I listen to it when I'm frustrated or depressed, for example, after a terrorist attack, or a major political/sports scandal.
"be something you love and understand" Hard as Simple ...
Heard this song for the 1st time on a beer commercial...sucks thats how I found out about it. I just went through something huge in my life and this song made me feel like I made the right choices..."Troubles will come and they will pass" is right on. Nothing like some Skynyrd to feel good about music and yourself.
