Hank Thompson Simple Simon Simple Heart lyrics

Simple Simon Simple Heart you met a girlie at the fair
Miss your timin' Simple Heart when you thought that she could care
Simple Simon, you're not smart, she gave her love to someone new
Simple Simon Simple Heart, oh what a lesson you guessin' what to do

Shame oh, shame true to your name you had to tag along
You didn't know it was a game, couldn't tell that it was wrong
Simple Simon Simple Heart let me tell you what to do
Simple Simon Simple Heart now you'd better forget her like she forgot you

Simple Simon Simple Heart you never went to school

Here's your rhymin' Simple Heart she forgot the golden rule
Simple Simon you'd be smart to be stubborn like a mule
Simple Simon you're the sort to be taken mistaken for a fool

Shame oh, shame true to your name you had to tag along
You didn't know it was a game, couldn't tell that it was wrong
Simple Simon Simple Heart let me tell you what to do
Simple Simon Simple Heart now you'd better forget her like she forgot you
