Fallon Lee - Simple Life Lyrics

It came around the Forth of July
They had their big last fight
The one where they call it quits
Momma picked up cigarettes
An daddy drank to forget
At least that's what they say

I never knew back then
Of what could've been
Just how simple life could really be
And I grew up quick
I didn't get to be a kid
But it made me who I am and I believe
There's a simpler life for me

Tried to stay away from alcohol
It came down to the last call, Oh no
Jack did what it did
Daddy quit drinking everyday
Sucks I was his protégé
Didn't fall far from the tree

I never knew back then
Of what could've been
Just how simple life could really be
But I found out quick
Jack really ain't my friend
Didn't get me far at 23
I believe there's a simple life for me

Don't worry mom it's not menthols
Just natural herb to keep me calm
And give me time to think
Mama threw her smokes away
I never thought I'd see the day
Give me strength to be free

I never knew back then
Of what could've been
Just how simple life could really be
We'll never get it just right
And that's the beauty of this life
It made me who I am and I believe
It's as simple as life can really be
It's as simple as life can be
