Simple Man

In the style of

Charlie Daniels Band

Lyrics

i ain't nothin' but
a simple man

they call me a redneck
i reckon that i am
but there's things
goin' on
make me mad
down to the core

i have to work
like a dog
to make ends meet

there's crooked
politicians
and crime in the street
and i'm madder
than hell
and i ain't a-gonna
take it no more

they tell our kids
just say no
and then some
pantywaist judge
lets a drug dealer go

he slaps him
on the wrist
then he turns him back
out on the town

well if i had my way
with people
sellin' dope
take a big tall tree
and a short
piece of rope

i'd hang 'em up high
and let 'em swing
till the sun goes down

well you know
what's wrong
with the world today
people done gone
and put their
bibles away

they're livin' by
the law of the jungle
not the law
of the land

well the good book
says it
so i know it's the truth
an eye for an eye
and a tooth
for a tooth

you better watch
where you're goin'
remember
where you been
that's the way i see it
i'm a simple man

now i'm the kind of man
would not
harm a mouse
but if
i catch somebody
breakin' in my house

i got a twelve-gauge
shotgun
a-waitin' on
the other side

so don't go pushin' me
against my will
i don't wanna
have to fight ya
but i durn sure will

if you don't
want trouble
then you'd better
just pass me on by

as far as
i'm concerned
there ain't no excuse
for the rapin'
and the killin'
and the child abuse

and i got a way
to put an end
to all that fast

you just take
them rascals
out in the swamp
a-put 'em
on their knees
and tie 'em to a stump

let the rattlers
and the bugs
and the alligators
do the rest

well you know
what's wrong
with the world today
people done gone
and put their
bibles away

they're livin' by
the law of the jungle
not the law
of the land

well the good book
says it
so i know it's the truth
an eye for an eye
and a tooth
for a tooth

you better watch
where you're goin'
remember
where you been
that's the way i see it
i'm a simple man

watch where
you're goin'
remember
where you been
that's the way i see it
i'm a simple man
