I have wondered this world far and wide

I've been all around to the other side

But there's nothin' like comin' home

I wanna sit on my front porch and drink my lemonade

Cut my grass after church every Sunday

And go out on Saturday night

Live the simple life

Wake up in the morning to these fields of gold

And take a long walk down a gravel road



Spend my days in the sweet sunshine

Rock in my swing and watch my garden grow

Know that I'll always have someone to hold

Oh I-I-I wanna live the simple life



I wanna take a blanket down to the creek

And let the water sing me to sleep

Let go of time

Live the simple life

Lately I've seen too many city lights

I wanna go somewhere where I can see the stars at night



Spend my days in the sweet sunshine

Rock in my swing and watch my garden grow

Know that I'll always have someone to hold

Oh I-I-I wanna live the simple life



Spend my days in the sweet sunshine

Rock in my swing and watch my garden grow

Know that I'll always have someone to hold

Oh I-I-I wanna live the simple life
