I am supposed to find a song for the mother of a groom. She wants "the perfect song" for a wedding dance with her son. I am just drawing blanks.
Any suggestions?
 
Seriously, though:

Simple Man - Lynyrd Skynard

Mama told me when I was young
Come sit beside me, my only son
And listen closely to what I say.
And if you do this
It will help you some sunny day.
Take your time... dont live too fast,
Troubles will come and they will pass.
Go find a woman and youll find love,
And dont forget son,
There is someone up above.

(chorus)
And be a simple kind of man.
Be something you love and understand.
Be a simple kind of man.
Wont you do this for me son,
If you can?

Forget your lust for the rich mans gold
All that you need is in your soul,
And you can do this if you try.
All that I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.

(chorus)

Boy, dont you worry... youll find yourself.
Follow you heart and nothing else.
And you can do this if you try.
All I want for you my son,
Is to be satisfied.

(chorus)
 
You know JD that is an excellent idea. I love that song.
I will see if I can talk the mom and groom into it.
 
Epilogue:

This past Saturday I attended the wedding where the young groom and his mom danced to Simple Man by Lynyrd Skynard thanks to JD's excellent suggestion.
It was a perfect suggestion.
I am told there wasn't a dry eye in the place.
But I couldn't see.
I had some dust or something in my eye that was making it water real bad. The groom was one of my sons and he was dancing with the love of my life.
Thanks again.

You've made my day! :D :cheers:
 
Thanks

One of the things I have always wanted for my three sons is that they would be as happily married as their dad.
He is a great son and he got a wonderful woman for a wife.
She is a blessing to us all.
 
Thanks Andrew. You will appreciate this part.
She was living in Arlington Virginia and working as a lawyer in DC so he basically took a good one from your neck of the woods and brought her back to Texas.

:up: Cool! I married a Texas girl and brought her back East. It's true what they say, "You can take the girl out of Texas, but you can't take Texas out of the girl." ;)
