Analysis of Simple words mean a lot
James Vincient Johnson 1952 (Algoma WV)
Simple words mean a lot
Common knowledge conveys
With a simple thank you or thanks
Coupled with
Yes Sir, No Sir,
Yes Ma’am, No Ma’am
Listen to what I say
Those simple words do pay
Man up, man up today
You’ll see it goes a long way
Perhaps courtesy sways
