Sly, the Family Stone - Sing a Simple Song lyrics

Sing a simple song!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah

I'm talkin', talkin', talkin', talkin'
Talkin' in my sleep

I'm walkin', walkin', walkin', walkin'
Walkin' in the street

Time is passin', I grow older
Things are happening fast
All I have to hold on to
Is a simple song at last
Let me hear you say

Yaaaaa, ya ya yaa ya
Yaaaaa, ya ya yaa ya

Sing a simple song
Try a little do, re, me, fa, so, la, ti, do
Do, re, me, fa, so, la, ti, do
Do, re, me, fa, so, la, ti, do

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah

I'm livin', livin'
Livin' life with all it's ups and downs

I'm givin', givin'
Givin' love and smiling at the frowns

You're in trouble when you find it's
Hard for you to smile
A simple song might make it
Better for a little while
Let me hear you say

Yaaaaa, ya ya yaa ya
Yaaaaa, ya ya yaa ya

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah

I'm talkin', talkin', talkin', talkin'

I'm walkin', walkin', walkin', walkin'

I'm livin', livin', livin' love

I'm livin' lovin' know about lovin'

Everybody sing together

Yaaaaa, ya ya yaa ya
Yaaaaa, ya ya yaa ya
Sing it in the shower
Yaaaaa, ya ya yaa ya
Sing it every hour, sing it
Sing it, sing it, sing it
Sing it with your mama, sing it
Sing it mama, got it sing it
Yaaaaa, ya ya yaa ya
Sing it with your papa, sing it
Sing it papa, got it sing it
Yaaaaa, ya ya yaa ya
