[00:00:00] Give Me the Simple Life (Remaster) - Carmen McRae (卡门·麦克蕾)

[00:00:07] Written by：Rube Bloom/Harry Ruby

[00:00:15] I don't believe in frettin' and grievin'

[00:00:19] Why mess around with strife

[00:00:22] I never was cut out to step and strut out

[00:00:27] Give me the simple life

[00:00:30] Some find it pleasant dining on pheasant

[00:00:34] Those things roll off my knife

[00:00:37] Just serve me tomatoes and mashed potatoes

[00:00:41] Give me the simple life

[00:00:44] A cottage small is all I'm after

[00:00:48] Not one that's spacious and wide

[00:00:52] A house that rings with joy and laughter

[00:00:55] And the ones you love inside

[00:00:59] Some like the high road I like the low road

[00:01:03] Free from the care and strife

[00:01:06] Sounds corny and seedy but yes indeedy

[00:01:10] Give me the simple life

[00:01:43] A cottage small is all I'm after

[00:01:47] Not one that's spacious and wide

[00:01:50] A house that rings with joy and laughter

[00:01:55] And the ones you love inside

[00:01:57] Some like the high road I like the low road

[00:02:02] Free from the care and strife

[00:02:05] Sounds corny and seedy but yes indeedy

[00:02:09] Give me the simple life
