From time to time, I will post a song I feel people can draw inspiration from. Music has the power to inspire and stir up so many emotions in us that reside deep in our soul and close to our heart. Many people have specific music they use as vehicles to enhance or cope with certain moods, feelings and occasions in life. Music is another means of communication – and one that is extremely unique and versatile – even controversial at times. Simple Man by Lynyrd Skynyrd is a great song. Check it out. Give it a listen and take a gander at the lyrics below the video.

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 will help you some sunny day.
Take your time… dont live too fast,
Troubles will come and they will pass.
Go find a woman and youll find love,
And dont forget son,
There is someone up above.

(chorus)
And be a simple kind of man.
Be something you love and understand.
Be a simple kind of man.
Wont you do this for me son,
If you can?

Forget your lust for the rich mans gold
All that you need is in your soul,
And you can do this if you try.
All that I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.

(chorus)

Boy, dont you worry… youll find yourself.
Follow you heart and nothing else.
And you can do this if you try.
All I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.
