Simple Life

from Bloodline by Wampeters

/

lyrics

can you tell me about the simple life
one more time
I want to get my money's worth
out of this thin dime
you know, your voice is kinda strained on the phone
like a transistor radio jammed full of stones

I only ask about the simple life
this last time
I want to know if it's real
or if it's just a line
is the simple life the latest craze
or can I really find the blue highways

because I've heard about the simple life
again and again
I've heard it from the TV
I've heard it from my friends
but you're the only one who knows
the simple life's the one you chose

so do you work the land
do you drive the plow
do you sow the seeds
and make it matter somehow
or are you lost in the simple machine

one more thing about this simple life
and I'll let you go
now that you've finally got it
what more do you know
has it answered all your questions then
or would you hesitate to do it again

'cause I've been wondering if this simple life
could be a myth
if it really held the answers
there'd be much more of it
sometimes it seems like all there is to say
is that nothing's simple, anyway
