Play A Simple Song
Donnie Van Zant, Jeff Carlisi
Oh my friend won't you tell me what to do?
A'They don't seem to understand
I try so hard to make my music tell the truth
A'Can't you lend a helpin' hand?
You gotta play a simple song for them
A'That's the only thing they want to love and understand
Won't you play a simple song for them?
Well I think that the songs are doin' fine
Well I can tell what's on their mind
You lend a hand now I'm doin' all I can
To help the people understand
You gotta play a simple song for them
That's the only thing they want to love and understand
Won't you play a simple song for them?
Oh my Lord I'll try, I'll try and try again
You gotta play a simple song for them
That's the only thing they want to love and understand
Won't you play a simple song for them?
