Lyrics:

Oh my friend won't you tell me what to do? a'They don't seem to understand. I try so hard to make my music tell the truth. a'Can't you lend a helpin' hand? You gotta play a simple song for them. a'That's the only thing they want to love and understand. Won't you play a simple song for them? Well I think that the songs are doin' fine. Well I can tell what's on their mind. You lend a hand now I'm doin' all I can to help the people understand. You gotta play a simple song for them. That's the only thing they want to love and understand. Won't you play a simple song for them? Oh my Lord I'll try, I'll try and try again. You gotta play a simple song for them. That's the only thing they want to love and understand. Won't you play a simple song for them?
