Keep It Simple

I tried to keep it simple so you understand
 I'm giving all the love that I can
 I'll try to keep it simple so you understand
 I'm giving all the love that I can
 On a bald day you had asked me
 For my love, my friend
 You said that I could trust you
 Yeah, you said, "You're gonna be my man"
 One lie led to another and I know that I lied myself
 You see, one lie leads to another lie but how many men do our lies kill?
 I tried to keep it simple so you understand
 I'm giving all the love that I can
 I'll try to keep it simple so you understand
 I'm giving all the love that I can
 C'mon, well give me your excuses
 Lord knows I heard them all
 So has your Momma and the FBI
 And they're both listening through the wall
 They said, "One lie leads to another". I told it to the policeman
 He said, "One lie leads to another lie but how many lies kill how many men?"
 I tried to keep it simple so you understand
 I'm giving all the love that I can
 I'll try to keep it simple so you understand
 I'm giving all the love that I can
 What part of love don't you understand?
 What part of love, love don't you understand? Eh!
 Some folks say, "Man take it easy!"
 Some folks say, "Man take a walk!"
 Well maybe I'll take myself on down to the river
 And throw myself off the dock
 Well you see my body floating on by
 You can throw me down a reef
 Then you can send my bleeding heart off to Washington
 Attention Commander-In-Chief! Wo!
 I tried to keep it simple so you understand
 I'm giving all the love that I can
 I'll try to keep it simple so you understand
 I'm giving all the love that I can
 Said I'll try to keep it simple so that you would understand
 The only thing worse in the whole wide world is another quiet man
 Said the only thing worse in the god damn world would be another quiet man
 You know, I'll try to keep it simple I'll give you all the love that I can
