Lyrics:
She looked like a cover girl with legs up to the moon
And I thought she was the answer to my prayers
At first we had some fun but I realized pretty soon
She plays a bad part in a Steven King nightmare
It started with her hating my old Chevy
Then she complained about my belly
And she forced me into working out my abs
She said I'd need a shave
And she doesn't feel save
When I'm aiming my shotgun at her cats
I bore it for a while
Till the day I thought I'd die
I flew the coop and quit the gym
Let my hair grow out again
No one is ever gonna change me
I am what I'm meant to be
I am what I am
A simple man
One day I was invited to her parents house
I cleaned my boots and dusted my old jeans
I said howdy ma’m howdy sir yeah I'm from the South
Tried hard to be friendly by all means
Her old man asked about my studies
And he talked about his Harvard buddies
While sipping English tea sugar free
I said I'm not a doctor
But I know how to fix a tractor
And if you need a hand than count on me
I bore it for a while
Till the day I thought I'd die
I flew the coop and quit the gym
Let my hair grow out again
No one is ever gonna change me
I am what I'm meant to be
I am what I am
A simple man
Now I'm hangin' on my front porch
With a six string in my hand
Singing songs from old Dixieland
And I'll do this for a while
Till the day I have to die
I praise the lord since then
He gave me freedom again
No one is ever gonna change me
I am what I'm meant to be
I am what I am
A simple man
Just a simple man
