Give Me the Simple Life

[00:07.06] I don't believe in fretting and grieving
[00:10.20] Why mess around with strife
[00:13.22] I never was cut out to step and strut out
[00:16.38] Give me the simple life
[00:19.48] Some find it pleasant dining on pheasant
[00:22.66] Those things roll off of my knife
[00:25.73] Serve me tomatoes and mashed potatoes
[00:28.83] Give me the simple life
[00:31.94] A cottage small is all I'm after
[00:34.97] Not one that's spacious and wide
[00:38.25] A house that rings with joy and laughter
[00:41.19] And the ones you love inside
[00:44.58] Some like the high road, I like the low road
[00:47.63] Free from the care and strife
[00:50.96] Corny and seedy, but yes indeedy
[00:54.00] Give me the simple life
[00:58.32]
[01:06.77] Ooh, give me the simple life
[01:08.68] Don't want anything more
[01:15.46]
[01:19.31] Ooh, give me the simple life
[01:22.37] I greet the dawn when I awaken
[01:25.70] The sky is clear up above
[01:28.95] I like my scrambled eggs and bacon
[01:31.64] Served by someone that I love, oh
[01:35.25] Some like the high road, I like the low road
[01:38.37] Free from the care and strife
[01:41.27] Sounds corny and seedy, but yes indeedy
[01:48.34] Give me the simple life
[01:59.57]
