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 want to 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 want to live the simple life I want to 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 want to 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 want to 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 want to live the simple life
