Simple Man — текст песни (The Charlie Daniels Band)





I ain`t nothin` but a simple man
They call me a redneck I reckon that I am
But there`s things going on
That 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`n hell and I ain`t gonna take it no more.

We tell our kids to just say no
Then some panty waist judge lets a drug dealer go
Slaps him on the wrist and then he turns him back out on the town.

Now if I had my way with people sellin` dope
I`d take a big tall tree and a short piece of rope
I`d hang `em up high and let `em swing `til the sun goes down

Well, you know what`s wrong with the world today
People done gone and put their Bible`s away
They`re living by the law of the jungle not the law of the land
The good book says it so I know it`s the truth
An eye for and eye and a tooth for a tooth
You better watch where you go and remember where you been
That`s the way I see it I`m a Simple Man.

Now I`m the kinda man that`d not harm a mouse
But if I catch somebody breakin in my house
I`ve got twelve guage shotgun waiting on the other side

So don`t go pushing me against my will
I don`t want to have to fight you but I dern sure will
So 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 raping and the killing and the child abuse
And I`ve got a way to put an end to all that mess

Just take them rascals out in the swamp
Put `em on their knees and tie `em to a stump
Let the rattlers and the bugs and the alligators do the rest

You know what`s wrong with the world today
People done gone and put their Bible`s away
They`re living by the law of the jungle not the law of the land
The Good Book says it so I know it`s the truth
An eye for and eye and a tooth for a tooth
You better watch where you go and remember where you been
That`s the way I see it I`m a Simple Man
