Run, run the work is never done
From morning till night
I run like a river
Running dry
Wish I could lead
A simple life

Life's fire doused with desire
Like a fish in the stream
I'm Hooked on something flashy
That I see
And it's keeping me from
A simple life

Oh, I'd love some time
In the peace & quite
On a mountain high
To clear this clutter in my mind away

Sunrise Carolina morning
Covered in gold
The good rich earth
Is all aglow
With all I need to lead
A simple life
