Story Behind the Song
While tending bar one graduation weekend, I couldn't help laughing at how ridiculas the parents of their graduating children can get
trying to outdo one another in just about everyway possible...
This song was easy, one line pretty much set up the next. the rcording went a little rougher, the more I worked on it the worse it got.
Lyrics
It shouldn't take discipline, no
It shouldn't take to much time
Come on take it easy baby
Blow off the day let it slide
And it shouldn't take energy
Or some well thought out plan
So don't you, don't you over stress
Over dress what a mess Oh Man!
Chorus:
You gotta keep It simple, simple baby
You gotta keep it simple, simple babe
You gotta keep it simple, simple baby
You gotta keep it simple, simple babe
It shouldn't take a gourmet meal
I got a nice box of wine
Come on over to my house honey and I'll show you how I dine
I don't care how much you make
I see right through you, you great big fake
What you wear or what you drive
repeat chorus
Take off that tie, your already hung
Take off those shoes show you how its done
Simple babe
Dance on a roof, rock in a feild
Get down in a road where the road says yeild
Simple babe
Take care of woman, Take care of your man
Take care of your home and all children
(and leave frogs and lizards in their natural habitat)
Repeat 1st verse
repeat chorus
