Gonna sing a simple song
Gonna strum a little tune
Oh and if you could spare some change
Well that would make my day
Just drop a nickle in my boater hat
And I'll play anything that you choose
I'll never be a milllionare
With a string around the moon
No I could never catch a break
Even on my best day
Still I keep smilin' as I ramble along
I just sing this simple song
Oh the things that people say
And the things that people do
Sometimes they get me down
Oh sometimes they get me blue
But I don't care too much about that
I'm just holdin' my hat
Well I could diamond every ring
And I could polish every shoe
But I could never buy the things
Baby, that true love brings
I'd stop my ramblin' and be happy at home
If I could pay a nickle for you
Well this world can be an ugly place
And people can be crude
But I'll never let that attitude
Put me in no bad mood
I'll only think about the happier things
As long as I can dance and sing
Oh the things that people say
And the things that people do
Sometimes they get me down
Oh sometimes they get me blue
But I don't care too much about that
I'm just holdin' my hat
Oh the things that people say
And the things that people do
Sometimes they get me down
Sometimes they get me blue
But I stay happy with you
