Simple Life Song Lyrics By Nathan Carter

I have included the guitar chords. They are in the key of A and that's the same key that Nathan Carter [ songs ] plays the song in. If you don't like playing the F#m chord you could just as well play an A chord instead because they are very close and you'll hardly tell the difference.
Red stripy socks and blue jeans on
the sun beating on his face.
he don't like it hot but that's alright 
cos hes living outside the rat race
lying on his bed on a fresh warm breeze 
puts a smile right across his face no time to rush hes at a
slow moving pace if your ready when the running's done

that's alright..hey.. because hes a man who loves a 
simple life that's alright hey because he's a man
who loves a simple life
He goes to the fridge and he grabs a beer 
he's got a thirst for doing nothing
he picks up his guitar hes got a nice warm noise 
he'll be ready when the running's done
he needs a haircut and he needs a shave hel let 
a few more days pass by cos hes having fun i think
hes won because hes living outside the rat race

That's alright..hey.. because hes a man who loves a 
simple life that's alright hey because hes a man
who loves a simple life
na na na na
na na na na
its time to work and its time to run hes gotta get 
something done but why today when tomorrows okay
be ready when the running's done.
that's alright..hey.. because hes a man that loves a 
simple life that's alright hey because he's a man
who loves a simple life
that's alright hey.. because he's a man who loves a 
simple life that's alright hey because he's a man
who loves a simple life
a simple life, a simple life
Nathan Carter singing Home To Donegall
