Simple Man Lyrics & Chords By Charlie Daniels

LyricsView Chords

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
