He lived in the mountains away from mankind
Somethin’ from nothin’ I owe him
Even a dime
He left so much behind
And when I discovered my grandfather’s life
My mountains they turned into hills That I could climb
I found a simple life
I found what I’ve been missin’
Right underneath my chin
I keep my eyes wide open
Lettin’ daylight in
I decided long ago
That I’d be more like him
For the rain the sun the sleet or snow
It’s a simple life I live
If I was poor or rich or young or old
It all hangs on a string
But when my day has come I hope they say
It’s the simple life I live
It’s the simple life I live
I found an old box in the attic one night
His dog tags from wars that he fought
Packed neatly inside
He kept it all inside
The photos and letters revealed so much truth
The folded up flag made me cry
Cause I never knew
Here’s to a simple life
I found what I’ve been missin’
Right underneath my chin
I keep my eyes wide open
Lettin’ daylight in
I decided long ago
That I’d be more like him
For the rain the sun the sleet or snow
It’s a simple life I live
If I was poor or rich or young or old
It all hangs on a string
But when my day has come I hope they say
It’s the simple life I live It’s the simple life I live
Every time I feel defeat
I’ll remember everything
All the words that you taught me
They’ll live on forever
And so I decided long ago
As life starts closin’ in
I’d raise a glass and toast to all That it’s a simple life you live
I decided long ago That I’d be more like him
For the rain the sun the sleet or snow
It’s a simple life I live
If I was poor or rich or young or old
It all hangs on a string
But when my day has come I hope they say
It’s the simple life I live It’s the simple life I lived
