[Lyric] Would That It Were so Simple (Dale Hollow)

Always thought it’d be best for me
To get by in life on my own
If only it were, so simple
Always thought I’d be self reliant
With nothing more than my charms
But sometimes my wiles
They escape me

Would that it were
So
Simple my dear boy
We’d all live in a Luke Bryan song
Kissing tomorrow goodbye
In our own namesake bar

After wandering round
All over town
Wishing that someone
Would take me on
I learned in this town
Everyone just wants
To party
Until I walked into
The Famous Saloon
Where I laid eyes on you
And thought “Here’s someone who understands
“Yourstruly.”
Would that it were
So
Simple my dear boy
I’d of danced with you
A time or two
While Luke Bryan sang “Drunk On You,”
Dosi-do and skip to my lou
I’ll never find a better love
Than I found with you

INDECIPHERABLE BABBLING FROM SOMEONE NAMED “TERRY DINERO??”

Would that it were…
So…
Simple my dear boy
We’d “YEEHAW!” til our throats got sore
And we’ll never got to Broadway
Any-MOOOOOOOOOOOO-ore
