Man Of Simple Pleasures
I’m a man, a man of simple pleasuresI got all I need, so give me whisky measuresWith dyslexic eyes I’m seeing very clearlyBy the way, I’m on my wayBut all of my life, I’ve been treated like a foolBut I’m no one’s fool
Here I go once again trying hard to pretendThere’s a future in your man made rulesI’ll be governed by the road, get to shed this heavy loadI see no future, so leave me alone in the past
I am told, the world is nearly endingBut when I look outside the birds are always singingYou throw sticks and bonesRemember every dog will have it’s day, I’m on my wayBut all of my life, I’ve been treated like a foolBut I’m no one’s fool
Here I go once again trying hard to pretendThere’s a future in your man made rulesI’ll be governed by the road, get to shed this heavy loadI've seen your future, so leave me alone in the past
Go on, let the righteous guide you home to where you belongI’ll stay, listen to my favourite tunes, that’s where I belong
You won’t take me for a rideI’m far too fast for you to keep up with meYou won’t take me for a rideNever catch them really need no money(I'm not gonna be standing in the lineWaiting for you just to kick me out)You won’t take me for a ride, you won’t take me for a rideYou won’t take me for a ride, you won’t take me for a ride
