[Verse 1]

Welcome back, my battered brother

Shake hard and take the upper hand

And may it never be forgotten

Who here is the better man

But there's no competition, buddy

And why it doesn't need to hurt

You can keep the motor running

I'll unload into the dirt

[Refrain]

Bring me simple men free of pride

I like simple men true and tried

[Verse 2]

Take a lesson here from Abel

Leave your swagger by the way

There's an element unstable

That your confidence betrays

Every big shot is a hunter

Every hunter's got his prey

You can tell me I'm a good sport

But that doesn't make me game

[Refrain]

[Outro]

Just a simple friend, I like simple men

Bring me simple men
