Lynyrd Skynyrd
Lynyrd Skynyrd's, "Simple Man"
Better Lyrics:
Mama told me
When I was young
To use a plunger
It works better
Than going elbow deep in the dung
When I was young
To use a plunger
It works better
Than going elbow deep in the dung
Original Lyrics:
Mama told me when I was young
Come sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely to what I say
And if you do this it'll help you some sunny day
Come sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely to what I say
And if you do this it'll help you some sunny day
