Give me the simple life
And the one you love inside
It must be pleasant, dining on pheasant
Sounds corny and seedy, but yes, indeedy
A heart that rings with joy and laughter
With the ones you love inside
A cottage small is all I'm after
Sounds corny and seedy, but yes, indeedy
A house that rings with joy and laughter
Using the proper knife
I guess, I was cut out to step and strut out
Give me the simple life
I want tomatoes and mashed potatoes
Give me the simple life
Free from the care and strife
Cottage small is all I'm after
You take the high road, I'll take the low road
Free from all care and strife
You take the high road, I'll take the low road
Not one that's spacious and wide
One that's spacious and wide
