lyrics

I am a simple man
I sing my simple songs
Hopin' and prayin' that all my complainin'
will finally please someone

I know there's more to life
than strummin' this guitar
and I mean to start livin' as free as the pidgeons
as pure as those purdy stars

I could leave a note in the morning
and be gone by the afternoon
I could leave without any warning
But, by golly, miss Molly, there's just so much to do

See, I've got this vision in mind
of life on the open road
Out in Arizona, sippin' a Corona
Outside of my mobile home

Or, maybe we'll move to the suburbs
I would be fine with that!
But we bought a house in the city - well ain't a pity!
Nah, I'm just kidding - I'm glad.

I could leave a note in the morning
and be gone by the afternoon
I could leave without any warning
But by golly, miss Molly, I could never leave you

I am a simple man
and I need to simplify:
Throw my phone in the river, start punishing this liver,
become a true liver of life

Cuz, I miss the forests and oceans
and lonesome walks under the moon
and I suppose I could have 'em
but I coudn't fathom being lonely again for you

No, I wouldn't trade you for the moon!
