A Down To Earth Dude
Just a down to earth dude, nothing special
Live a simple uncomplicated existence
It's how it's been for almost eighty years
Changing now would be inconsistent
We are who we are after many long years
Of living, observing, and choosing
The path that seems like the right one to us
Is the one that's the least confusing
Some are comfortable with strife in their life
It seems to give them reason for being
Always liked mine to be real smooth sailing
With a simple devil-may-care feeling
Don't know how many of you nice people
Have a similar approach to living
Didn't have a choice it was chosen for me
But I certainly don't have any misgivings
Just a down to earth dude, nothing special
Live a simple uncomplicated existence
