Simple Man Lyrics - B-sides & Rarities - Deftones

Mama told me when I was young 

Sit beside me, my only son 

And listen closely to what I say 

Oh, if you do this, it will help you some sunny day 

Boy, take your time, dont live too fast 

Troubles will come and they will pass 

To find a woman and youll find love 

And dont forget, son, there is someone up above 

And be a simple kind of man 

Be something you love and understand 

Baby, be a simple kind of man 

Wont you do this, if you can? 

Forget your lust, rich mans 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 

And be a simple kind of man 

And be something you love and understand 

Baby, be a simple kind of man 

Wont you do this for me, son, if you can? 

Boy, dont you worry, youll find yourself 

Follow your heart, nothing else 

And you can do this if you try 

All that I want for you my son, is to be satisfied 

And be a simple kind of man 

And be something you love and understand 

Baby, be a simple kind of man 

Wont you do this for me, son, if you can? 

And be a simple kind of man 

And be something you love and understand 

Baby, be a simple kind of man 

Wont you do this, if you can? 

And be a simple kind of man 

And be something you love and understand 

Baby, be a simple kind of man
