I live a simple life
Couple of friends I really like
A little house outside of town
An old car that gets me around
Complications may arise
But I live a simple life
And I live a simple life
Cell phone when my old car dies
The Internet to show me where
GPS to get me there
Everywhere there s satellites
Oh I live a simple life
(Chorus)
