I love a simple life, front porch in my lovers arms Green grass and an open Sky I love a simple life Born and Raised by God's good grace In a Texas town where life happens at a slow world pace Learn to work with my hands, and say yes ma'am That 's a part of me that will never fade away I love a simple life, front porch in my lovers arms Green grass and an open Sky I love a simple life Got my kids and am willing too Ringing out under a Southern moon One thing that's always true, I love the simple life The Great Smoke, the drink in my hand Few friends on the way and it sure'd be a fine night Sun hanging low, now I forgot a piece of my soul And I think to myself God it's good to be alive I love a simple life, front porch in my lovers arms Green Grass and an open Sky I love a simple life God makes it and I'm waiting too Hanging out under a Southern moon One thing that's always true, I love the simple life All we need, are the simple things To see the world with open eyes And arms to hold you close at night But it ain't all easy, it'll be alright I love a simple life, front porch in my lovers arms Green grass and an open Sky I love a simple life Got my kids and am willing too Ringing out under a Southern moon One thing that's always true, I love the simple life Yes built for me and you I love the simple life One thing that's always true I love the simple life
