Ballad of a Simpleton, Pt 1

O, to be a simpleton with my simple ways
I carry in my pockets what I need to live these days
Three simple reminders to make our time worthwhile
Symbols of a quiet heart and how to walk a mile
In the muddy boots or tracks of others on the path
When a man cares he has no fear of what he lacks
To lead with kindness first brings simple joy
There’s always enough to share, it’s a simple choice

live performance (4k) recorded in Oakland by a creek in the woods
