Give Me The Simple Life - Remastered 1998
I don't believe in frettin' and grievin'
Why mess around with strife?
I never was cut out to step and strut out
Give me the simple life.
So I'll find it pleasant, dining on pheasant
Those things roll off my knife.
Just serve me tomatoes and mashed potatoes
Give me the simple life.
A cottage small is all I'm after
Not one that's spacious and wide
A house that rings with joy and laughter
And the ones you love inside.
Some like the high road, I like the low road
Free from the care and strife.
Sounds corny and seedy, but yes, indeedy
Give me the simple life.
A cottage small is all I'm after
Not one that's spacious and wide
A house that rings with joy and laughter
And the one you love inside.
Some like the high road, I like the low road
Free from all care and strife.
Sounds corny and seedy, but yes, indeedy
Give me the simple, simple life.
Give me the simple, simple life.
Du-du, du du-du du-du-du.
Why mess around with strife?
I never was cut out to step and strut out
Give me the simple life.
So I'll find it pleasant, dining on pheasant
Those things roll off my knife.
Just serve me tomatoes and mashed potatoes
Give me the simple life.
A cottage small is all I'm after
Not one that's spacious and wide
A house that rings with joy and laughter
And the ones you love inside.
Some like the high road, I like the low road
Free from the care and strife.
Sounds corny and seedy, but yes, indeedy
Give me the simple life.
A cottage small is all I'm after
Not one that's spacious and wide
A house that rings with joy and laughter
And the one you love inside.
Some like the high road, I like the low road
Free from all care and strife.
Sounds corny and seedy, but yes, indeedy
Give me the simple, simple life.
Give me the simple, simple life.
Du-du, du du-du du-du-du.
