Hey, when is the last time you sat down and had dinner with your kids?
Talked about what´s going on in their lives?
Hey, when is the last time you just stopped and helped somebody out?
I bet you can´t remember

Well a lot of people are sayin´
"We´re changing for the better"
Well 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´ve 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 mornin´
Go fishin´ 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 nothin´ once in a while

Yeah Maybe kick my feet up
Watch a little re-run on TV
Laughin´ 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´ve 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

Everything´s going 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 like the simple life
The way it USED to be
We left our doors wide open
We didn´t need no key
I´ve 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
