Uncomplicated

 
I take my coffee black
And drink my whiskey neat
I'd rather walk 'round barefoot
Than put shoes on my feet

I've no use for diamonds
Or cultured fancy pearls
I'll leave expensive jewelry
To all the other girls

Just give me dirt and flowers
Some ground in which to plant
I'll clean my dirty hands
When I take my bubble bath

A walk beside the ocean
A simple book or two
Your hand inside my hand
Is all I need from you

Very nice, Tracy. You are such a closet poet. You say you can't do it, but you do it wonderfully!
Now, think yellow... :)
