SIMPLE MAN
Words & Music
Tasos Taiganides and Terry Carter
Maybe I’m alright if you say it’s never so
And maybe I’m ok and I don’t need no more blow
I can never get so high
If I need to reach the sky
I never felt so damn low
like I did the night before
Oh, it’s such a simple plan
Oh, for a simple man
I’ll head to that factory and I’ll lead a simple life
Workin’ 9 to 5 and tryin’ to survive my friend
I can never get so much and I'll never get nothin’ in return
Maybe I could change my life – once again
Oh, it’s such a simple plan
Oh, for a simple man
Oh, I’m doin’ the best I can
Oh, for a simple man
Maybe I could leave this town and head for the coast
I’ll put my car in drive and I’ll leave – myself
Oh, it’s such a simple plan
Oh, for a simple man
Oh, I’m doin’ the best I can
Oh, I’m just a simple
I’m just a simple man
I’m doin’ the best I can
I wonder if they understand
Aw – hell yeah! I’m goin’ down to Los Angeles
Gonna head down to the Whiskey a Go-Go man
Gonna rock on Hollywood Boulevard
Gonna take a walk on the wild side of life
Gonna find out just who you are
‘Cause hey man, hey man, hey man, hey man
Are you a simple
Are you a simple man?
