| Lyrics: | (Gary Rossington - Ronnie Van Zant)
Mama told me when I was young
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.
Take your time... Don't live too fast,
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.
[Chorus:]
And be a simple kind of man.
Be something you love and
understand.
Be a simple kind of man.
Won't you do this for me son,
If you
can?
Forget your lust for the rich man's gold
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.
[Chorus]
Boy, don't you worry... you'll find yourself.
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.
[Chorus] |
