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 (Oh yeah)
Oh take your time
Don't live too fast
Troubles will come
And they will pass
Go find a woman
And you'll find love
And don't forget son, there is someone up above
And be a simple kind of man
Oh be somethin' you love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Oh won't you do this for me son, if you can?
Forget your lust
For the rich man's 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
And be a simple kind of man
Oh be somethin' you love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Oh won't you do this for me son, if you can? (Oh yes I will)
Boy don't you worry
You'll find yourself
Follow your heart
And nothing else
And you can do this, oh babe, if you try
All that I want for you my son, is to be satisfied
And be a simple kind of man
Oh be somethin' you love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Oh won't you do this for me son, if you can?
Baby be a simple, be a simple man
Oh be somethin' you love and understand...

This was my dad's favorite song. I got my first guitar just to learn it for him when I was 13. He passed away what feels like yesterday (July 20th, 2017) but I still play and practice this song till today for him.
I'm So Sorry Dude, Your Dad Is Waiting For You And You Bet He Listens Every Time You Play
Hey Boy from another side of planet: I got my first guitar from my grandma who died this year march. Im 30 now, its never to late to learn new things.
I know it hurts but im so happy that I had so a wonderful human beeing in my life ♥ wish u only the best, keep going, reach out to the stars!
Awesome, 😊
Stay strong and remember the good times! Big love!
Thanks for sharing the story my bro from other parents🙏🏼 may your late father rest in oeaxe and may his memories be a blessing
The devil is working hard to bring Gods people down. But, God works overtime!! God Bless the people that struggles everyday, and dont get ahead. God is within these people, and they will prosper amundantly before their time on earth is through. I claim this in the name of the Father, Son, and holy ghost! May God bless the working man!
Praise the Lord! 🙏❤️
In Jesus Name 🙏🏻
Victoria your 100%! God bless you and everyone else always
this was my dad’s favorite song. we even played it at his funeral. i’ll forever listen to this and think about him.
Hell, I rocked out in prison to this song for years.
I don't care davel696969
I played this song at my grandpa funeral last month
❤
Pulled this up to learn it for the funeral of a friend.
We are only given a little time in this scheme of things. Be simple ;live ,love do unto others as you would have done to you.
My dad passed yesterday and this has been the hardest thing I've ever been thru...I'm playing all his songs
Sorry for your loss. Hang in there. My Dad died 34 years ago and I think of him all the time. Things get better with time but the pain never goes away. Memories are a great healer.
I love this one
So sorry for your lost I’m 57 years old I lost my dad 50 years ago still miss my dad today but it will get better but they live with us in our hearts.
🙏
@@timmy8435dam my dad died 34 years ago in 94 when I was 14.5 he just turned 32 yrs old n I thought that was old now I'm 44 n I died at 32 but the electric paddles brought me back after a drunk truck driver hit me , my brother died from a truck driver while on his bike going from Florida to Massachusetts n my other brother just died last year by a truck hitting him in Spain as he was traveling back from France through Spain to get to Portugal n my dad died in a terrible car wreck at 32 years old , he just turned 32 ,2.5 months before that n I got killed but brought back 2.5 months after I turned 32 which did my head in n I was convinced I would die wen my kid was a freshman in HS in January just like it happened to me n I couldn't shake that feeling lil did I know I was carrying some bastard cells in me that turned on me , did you know the doctor told me every minute of every day 1,000 cells change n it only takes one cell to be cancer n it's like an exponential rise n the only real best bet is to catch it early dont just go to one doctor or two n make sure they don't know each other cuz it' s like a fraternity with them n same with certain types of dentists , buvking got a legal license to sell you drugs that barely help n never cures unless its a anibiotic or a vacvine thats been properly tested , this aint a small pox im talking about, we all suffered chicken pox wen they had the vscvine but waited about 30 years vuz thats the average to see if the vaccine was safe
Here in 7-2024 60years old been listening to them as the plane crashed ....sad day...peace to all!!
I heard the Plane didn't Crash...it Landed in Paradise Far Far Away
Such wise words to live by in such complicated times.
YES!!
Always remember that there is someone up above. People that don't have morals and some religion are heathens. Drug addicts.

I will love this song, the lyrics, the band forever.

Was my mother son dance song at my wedding reception. Miss you momma!
I gave my son a copy of this song when he turned 13. Life went on, he graduated, went to college, joined the military. He got married at 30. It came time for the mother/son dance and this is the song that started. He said he listened to this song all his growing up years because it meant a lot to him. I never knew he listened to it other than the day I gave it to him.
Aww precious 😊
I wanna cry
Thank You Donna…
this is such a beautiful wholesome thing to know! you're an amazing mother and he is an awesome son! you remind me of my mother, God Bless every mother's heart ❤
Awesome 😊
To everyone who may have lost a dad I can relate April 29, 2024. My mom passed away May 29, 2024. My dad passed away. Technically he was my stepdad. Only in the legal sense. That man taught me more about how to be a Man. So I dedicate this song to you pop you are sorely missed rest in peace your son, Ronald
Sorry for your losses. I lost my dad the day after my 12th birthday August 2nd, 2006. He liked skynrd and a lot of other classic rock.
So very sorry for your losa Brother ! May they both find their peace on the other side. Loud Love To You 🖤🖤
Not sure if my mess come thru to you. So try again...yeah I can relate my Mom passed in 08 while I was in prison. But I had a step-dad also and that man raised me and was apart of my life 49 of 56 yrs ,He passed away on 11/5/21 , but my friend I also lost my wife of 12 yrs 3 mos later. And if that wasn't bad enough ,Had to put my Best friend,(my Dog).down 7 mos after that. I've not Been the same since. 😢. God Bless You.
One of the most underrated songs
🥹Great Song
This was my dad’s favorite song he passed away 3/10/23 and we played it at his funeral I will forever miss you daddy!!🕊️🕊️❤️❤️
I'm sorry to hear that
Dad's aren't a hole you can fill...but day by day it gets a little easier to live with.
Daddy passed away 4/4/24 here. Song describes him perfectly.
4/1/22 here. i miss him everyday, he used to love singing this while drinking lol. RIP to our fathers! stay strong and it's okay, to not be ok. It's Simple Man.
Amen
My ma used to sing this to me when it was time for bed. And to this day I cry hearing this song
I'm Latin, even though I don't listen to the music in my natural language, I always listen to my mother's words in this song, and just like you, I also cry listening to it.
Mother is the name for God upon the lips and hearts of all children
i'm sorry man
Gave my son up for adoption at 16 because ai was threatened to get an abortion. It was the only other option. Hes 10 now. Still see him from time to time. This goes out to you my simple man. 🥺
Keep your head high ❤❤❤
@@lovemywifeandkids8258 thank you so much 🤍
❤
❤ ❤
Respect bro 🙏
One of the best song ever written. So true as well.
Timeless..grew up with this song during my high school days and now being on my sixties..still love this song and the band
Recently, the one who was my companion for over 3 years left me for a life of foolish adventures. I still feel a lot of pain; I am so emotionally hurt that sometimes it becomes something physical. I asked God for an answer, and I stumbled upon this song completely by chance. I didn't make a mistake; she did. My wounds are deep, but I will recover. If you're going through something like this, do as in the song-love, and you will understand. Be kind and follow your heart; everything you need is in your spirit.
One foot in front of the other you will be good.. Then you will find someone else that is even better for you..
It's in your soul... ❤❤❤
Sad for you, but glad for what is to come🤞🇬🇧👌
You will get through this and be stronger than before. His lost. God wanted better for you.
I am sorry for your deep hurt.
I pray that you will heal into contentment.
I want this song to be one of the ones at my funeral.
This song will be played at my Funeral!❤❤❤
My son is getting married, we are doing a mother son dance and this is the song that I choose. His dad is dead, has been for years. So it's a little different in that matter. Beautiful song beautiful times
Hi😊
Sounds like Scorpio band copied Lynyrd Skynryd with their Always Somewhere song!! What a rip off! I love this better especially the message is true to me!
I told people you never left me after life..but nobody listens to Me. Rest in Paradise ❤️thanks for the proof my Guardian Angels 😇
Aah man, i so desperately wish/ hope my sons will be wise enough to learn/understand/realise the truth as you have. Bless you. You're on the right track. Take time to heal and grow strong again. Pray that u will find true love oneday. I believe u will. God bless u.
It's 2023 and I'm dedicating this song to my handsome son Jacob. I love you my son!
My grandpa's song before he goes to bed, and now i think it is the time to forever play it for him, miss ya grandpap.
My sister DeLynn Reed lost her first born son a couple of years ago. She hasn't been the same since. I wasn't able to make it to his memorial service, I arrived a long while later at my sister's house on her "Rez" to visit her and see her little girls. Naturally, I do my best to do what I can for her when I'm there, like tending to her home etc. So, before I start to tidy up her living room, I have to put some music on, and for some reason I felt like blasting this song while I did my thing. I played it loud and before I knew it, my sister came out from her room and just kinda stared at me while the song was playing. I thought she was gonna tell me to turn it down, but she didn't. I think at that moment, she probably received some sort of confirmation about her son's spirit around her. Why? Well, this very song I was playing, was the song played at her son's funeral. For the record, we hadn't even touched the surface or even mentioned anything about his death yet. Ironic? Maybe. However, I believe spirits are real and they make their way back to those who are still hurting or mourning them when they were on Earth. They come and show you they're there through music and signs and all sorts of ways that people are able to recognize and feel em again. It was a beautiful moment and now a good memory for me to write about now. Rest In Peace, Dustin. You are never forgotten and always missed. Love you DeLynn Reed, walk softly.
Your sister,
Jackie
All I have to say it thanks to everyone who wrote all of these wonderful comments stay strong brothers and sisters much love

I used to put head phones on my pregnant stomach and play this song, to my unborn son. Years of being apart from my son with no communication. At 15 years old, my son began to speak with me. With in hours, he asked me if I ever heard of the song "Simple Man" by LS. I started to cry 😢😢😢😢😢😢

This was my mommas song to me! RIP Momma!!

Ich Liebe dieses Music Stück Lynryd Skynyrd Simple man! Gruss aus der Schweiz Daniel 😊
Simple music from a simple time. Forever a rock classic today, tomorrow and forever!!!!!!
My Dad passed in 2009,I LOVE HIM AND MISS HIM SO MUCH!!! :💔❤️🩹❤️🫶 I'm a female but it still reminds me of my Dad because he always listened and gave me direction.. LOVE YOU DAD ❤️
My mama never told me nothing like this, and then she left me when I was 12. For the longest time I thought I had lost something by her leaving. I was angry. Fact is though, I never had a mother so when that woman left, I lost nothing. Healing for me has been slowly realizing this harsh reality. It's been the only way to let go of the anger. I lost nothing
My Dad's favourite song.Sadly he passed away 2024/02/10.R.I.P Dad.
My condolences baby! Listen closely to what I say!! I'm so sorry we miss Dad baby
😢
Up above!! Be so me Ethan you love and understand for him son if you can
My son is Autistic n bipolar duel diagnosis but he's my baby hesx35 yrs old 😂 my baby he's so tired of his momma I get it lol.. I don't think he needs me more than I need him! GIGGLES this is my favorite song to my boy
I'm so sorry 😢
I do not need a sob story. I have plenty of that on my own. Does it work, or does it not? Sell us on the actual technology.
This is my favorite song. It's so true and beatiful. ❤
Better to be simple,then complicated. When we got hear, failure to get complicated again and again in the end....
Sure love this old school jam
Here it is, 2024, and damn if this song is still as awesome.
Still shows that this Era of music was the greatest. I truly try, but I can not connect to today's music (if you can call it that).
This is for my son, Nicolas. I’m so proud of you. I love you so much.
im 31 but as a mother to 2 amazing sons; this is for them. I didnt understand this until I became a parent... my parents came from trauma (intergenerational trauma due to canadian residential schools) so that love was lost through those generations... now I am breaking that cycle for my sons (also my daughter but sons are different for a mother).
❤ Caleb & River ❤ 0:29
It's a shame that songs like These are over, today's music is like plastic, fast done, no soul,
Facts there.
But now we have “What Was I Made For” by Billy Eilish 😀
My Angle sent this to me today i was missing him so much it was one of his favorite songs
My simple man is my son I raised as a teen mom at 16… he’s now 21…. He’s more then a simple man but a wonderful one ❤

Romans16v20, good job brother. No pretribulation bs, see Hebrews9v28... you,ll be fine Mark13v11...
Doesn’t matter if you’re black, white, Chinese, Mexican, Native American I think every boy should hear this song at 10 years old
I dedicate to my brother John, RIP. Luv sissy 💞
My future son will know this song. Hope he loves it as much as I do.💖🥰
Support Southern Rock!....

Haven’t been lucky enough to have a mom but I have the greatest dad! He’s a simple kind of man and I’m too!
I love coins old American...teacher carlos alberto de rosa ...ave pater ares ...❤greek naples brasile ...maio 2024
This was my son Josh's favorite song. he was murdered on February 6, 2013 in his own house after waking up from a nap and coming down a flight of steps. He never realized he would never walk up those steps again. The murderer shot him seven times and only got third degree 15 to 30. The two eyewitnesses were never made to show up for court. Then seven months later Josh's twin sister Jacqueline died on September 11, 2013. I was devastated I have had a trauma counselor and the good Lord to help me deal with this deep tragedy, for they were my only two children. God is so good! My children are in heaven. They knew Jesus Christ. Thank God! Several gospel songs by Johnny Cash have helped me through this tragedy , as well! Thank God by Lauren Daigle, also has been an inspiration to me. The song itself " Simple Man" holds a special place in my heart for my son Joshua. Jackie liked the song by Andy Grammar Keep your head up, it is, also, an inspiration to me when I think of my daughter! I have, by the grace of God, been able to forgive this awful murderer who ruined my life but God made me a stronger person through the trial or I would of never made it. THANKS BE TO JESUIS CHRIST OUR LORD AND SAVOUR FOREVER AND EVER!!!!!!!
👨👷♀🦋🦋
Thank you for sharing this, what a testimony
Wow!!!
My sincere condolences! I can't even imagine. Prayers for you ❤
God bless you ❤
I miss my incredible day
God Bless you all I dedicate this to all my sons
The song always reminds me of my dad. He may not have been rich, or a rocket scientist, he was however a simple man and I love and miss him everyday

This was my late dad's song he used to sing it to all my brothers
Truly one of my all time favorites!!
With much love and respect...
Thank you ❤️
Lembre de minha mãezinha (in memorian) que por incrível que pareça disse isso quando era pequeno ...essa música nem havia sido escrito ...até parece que ela fez a letra😢
The guitars in this track remind me a lot of "Bleeding Me" be Metallica. They drew inspiration from this for sure.
This Joint Has My Black Azz Stuck,
Why Is This My 1st time Hearing This Masterpiece 😢
i love this song rest in peace lynrd skynrd
This song will forever be great. hits you in the feels.
my boyfriend likes this song, i know he probably relates to it too. he's the only son out of 5 sisters and he's the most simple person i know. i listen to this everyday to feel close to him in some ways.
Wow these comments are just so heartfelt, my heart goes out TO ALL OF YOU.
I love and miss you so much Dad, you were so misunderstood at times - I guess that’s where I get it from - I love you. You were one of the only male, other than Todd, that had so much respect and devotion to his partner (Mama - I’m glad you guys are together - but miss you both so much and it hurts so much 🪽❤️)
❤this was my best friends song. Unfortunately he past away toooo young. I will listen for him
Powerful
The flip side of this song is CCR’s Fortunate Son.
I haven’t heard this song in 10 or so years. I got chills from the intro. What a masterpiece
