Look for the bare necessities, the simple bare necessities |
|
Forget about your worries and your strife |
|
I mean the bare necessities, Old Mother Nature's recipes |
|
That brings the bare necessities of life |
|
Wherever I wander, wherever I roam |
|
I couldn't be fonder of my big home |
|
The bees are buzzing in the tree |
|
To make some honey just for me |
|
When you look under the rocks and plants |
|
Take a glance at the fancy ants |
|
Then maybe try a few |
|
The bare necessities of life will come to you |

With just the bare necessities of life |

Just try and relax, yeah, in my backyard |
|
'Cause let me tell you, boy, you're working too hard |
|
Don't spend your time poking around |
|
For something you want that can't be found |
|
When you find out you can live without it |
|
And go along not thinking about it |
|
I'll tell you something true |
