Minnie Riperton - Simple Things

Текст песни

If Simon says, «Be glad today»
I surely do what Simon say
And if you’d like to see me smile
Then you’re in luck, 'cause that’s my style
My pretty bird up in the tree
I hear the song you sing for me
The sky’s fantastic, blue or grey
And here we are, alive today
Hey, hey, hey
Hey!
The simple things, the lovely simple things
The sunset and the dawn, oh
The simple things, the lovely simple things
I could go on, and on, and on
For the simple pleasures are worth more than treasures
That your paper money ever bring
This song is old, this song is new
This song is me, this song is you
I like to play out in the rain
I like the sun to shine again
And again and again
Each day, so many things to see
And I’m so glad that I am me
And you, my friends, are pretty too
And I’m so glad that you are you
You are you, you are you
Ow!
The simple things, the lovely simple things
The sunset and the dawn, oh
The simple things, the lovely simple things
I could go on, and on, and on
For the simple pleasures are worth more than treasures
That your paper money ever bring
Ah, ya-ya-ya-ya-ya, ya-ya-ya-ya
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, hoo-ooh-hoo
