(M. Riperton - R. Rudolph) 

 



If Simon says be glad today 

I surely do what Simon say 

And if  youl like to see me smile 

Then you're in luck cause that's my style 



My pretty bird up in the tree 

I hear the song you sing for me 

The sky's fantastic blue or grey 

And here we are alive today 



Hey... 

The simple things 

The lovely simple things 

The sunset and the dawn 

The simple things 

The lovely simple things 

I could go on and on and on 



For the simple pleasures 

Are worth more than treasures 

That your paper money ever bring 



This song is old, this song is new 

This song is me, this song is you 

I like to play out in the rain 

I like the sun to shine again 

And again and again 



Each day so many things to see 

And I'm so glad I am me 

And you, my friends, are pretty too 

And I'm so glad that you are you
