Just a Simple Man , That Is Me
Just A Simple Man , That Is Me
Just a simple man , that is me
all I want in my life
is for people to just let me be
Make no claim to bright fame
no hero do I declare
a simple man is my name
Have no riches , no shining gold
just honor in my pockets
hopes to live until I grow old
No papers citing my glory or deeds
just living my very simple life
planting loving family seeds
Sunday finds me down on my knees
no hangover from late night partying
instead prayers for help in my pleas
Lord sends answers almost every day
not with emails sent on my computer
just love and blessings sent my way
I asked that simple life be my reward
no massive wealth have I sought
no million dollar limit on my card
Parents taught me right from wrong
how to fall down on bended knee
admit my weakness and sins all along
Just a simple man , that is me
all I want in my life
is for people to just let me be
