Simple Life

Hey when was the last time

You sat down and had dinner with your kids

Talked about what's going on in their lives

Hey when was the last time you just stopped

And helped somebody out

I bet you can't remember

Well a lot of people are saying

We're changing for the better

But that don't interest me

I like the simple life the way it used to be

We left our doors wide open we didn't need no key

I been around the world seen all there is to see

I'd trade all those memories

For one more day how it used to be

I like the simple life

I wanna get up Sunday morning

And go fishing with my boy

Watch the sunset kick back in my yard

Take my Harley on a real long lazy Sunday drive

And do a little more nothing once in a while

Yeah maybe kick my feet up

Watch a little re-run on TV

Laughing with ol' Barney Andy and Aunt Bee

I like the simple life the way it used to be

We left our doors wide open we didn't need no key

I been around the world seen all there is to see

I'd trade all those memories

For one more day how it used to be

I like the simple life

Yeah everything's moving by so fast

I swear sometimes we just can't see

So caught up in where we're trying to get

Life as we know it could be gone in a minute

I want the simple life the way it used to be

We left our doors wide open didn't need no key

I been around the world seen all there is to see

I'd trade all those memories for one more day

I like the simple life I like the simple life

I want the simple life yeah
