Lyrics - Simple Life

VERSE 1

I like the simple life.

The simple life’s for me.

Give me a sunny day,

Wind in the trees.

Air that’s fresh, and water clean,

Food that’s good to eat.

Warm clothes so I don’t freeze.

Shoes for my feet.

 

CHORUS

Oh-wee-oh, wee-oh, oh. Simple life for me.

Oh-wee-oh, wee-oh, oh. Best things are for free.

 

VERSE 2

When we’re born into this world,

We have simple needs.

Then as we grow older,

Life picks up speed.

We can read many books,,

Lots of facts they give.

We can learn lots of rules,

But not how to live. 

 

PRE-CHORUS

Oh----, wee-oh

Oh----, wee-oh

BRIDGE

(8 bar instrumental)

 

CHORUS

 

VERSE 3

Gazing at the mountains,

We can look for free.

Beauty surrounds us.

All Nature we can see.

Clouds up in the sky. Ocean…

Waves that never end.

Life is overflowing.

Share it with a  friend.

 

CHORUS

 

VERSE 4

When we pass and leave this world,

We leave it alone.

Until then we have riches,

From things we find at home.

Family, friends, and beauty,

Nature’s full buffet.

The simple things around us,

‘round us every day.

 

PRE-CHORUS
