Simple Tools - Ry Cooder[00:00:00]
My wife used to say she couldn't understand[00:00:18]
Why I make my living working with my hands[00:00:28]
She met a junk bond daddy[00:00:36]
And he broke up my home[00:00:40]
He made his living on the telephone[00:00:45]
Daddy spied my darling[00:00:55]
Dialed her number then[00:00:59]
They took off next morning[00:01:04]
And she won't be back again[00:01:06]
I may not be good looking[00:01:12]
And I never been to school[00:01:15]
But I patched up my broken home[00:01:21]
Using simple tools[00:01:25]
Simple tools simple tools I like simple tools[00:01:30]
I'm just a common ordinary workaday fooi[00:01:40]
I might not be the brightest[00:01:51]
Bulb or the straightest mIe[00:01:54]
But I can mend my broken heart[00:02:00]
Using simple tools[00:02:03]
I can talk to girls in bars maybe a few[00:02:09]
We'B drink a Iittle glass[00:02:19]
Of wine or maybe two[00:02:21]
I might wake up in gay[00:02:27]
Paree or good old San Berdoo[00:02:30]
The gals appreciate a man[00:02:36]
That uses simple tools[00:02:41]
I won't be walking 'round[00:02:47]
All night wondel'in' what to do[00:02:48]
And I won't be calling up[00:02:54]
The morgue askin' for you[00:02:58]
Or beating down these memories[00:03:04]
With one of your old shoes[00:03:09]
I can do the job in half the time'[00:03:13]
Cause I use simple tools[00:03:17]
Simple tools simple tools I like simple tools[00:04:00]
I'm just a common ordinary workaday fooI[00:04:10]
I might not be the brightest bulb[00:04:20]
Or the straightest rule [00:04:25]
But I can do the job in half the time[00:04:29]
Using simple tools simple tools[00:04:35]
