A Simple Man

A Simple Man

by Bud Lemire on Aug 9, 2009

My life isn’t complicated, I’m a simple man

Just living each day, the best that I can

I appreciate the simple things I see

For they mean everything to me

I don’t need a lot of money to make my day

A great song, a beautiful scene, and I’m okay

The sun shining down, clouds and sky so blue

At the end of a long hot day, taking off my shoe

I look forward to the rising sun

And the sunset when the day is done

The way the sun keeps the day bright

And the color of the flowers in its light

A bike ride through the park

Seeing the moonlight in the dark

The birds singing in the trees

Some popcorn with a slice of cheese

I don’t ask for much, and I try my best

I could have more, but do with less

I’m just happy to be exactly who I am

A laid back life of being A Simple Man

That's what I am

I'm a Simple Man.
