I know that you could have more than a poor hard workin' man I love you and I need you and I ask you for your hand And my calloused hands will work for you from sunup to sundown If only you'll accept me as simple as I am I speak to you with simple words I know no fancy lines I am just a simple man who wants you to be mine I cannot offer diamonds just a simple golden band
And I hope that you'll accept me as simple as I am ( fiddle ) I cannot promise riches love is all I can afford But I can promise you no one else can love you more And I can promise you I'll never let you down If only you'll accept me as simple as I am I speak to you... I hope that you'll accept me as simple as I am
