Look for the bare ne-cess-i-ties,
the sim-ple bare ne-cess-i-ties,
for-get a-bout your wor-ries and your strife.
I mean the bare ne-cess-i-ties
old Moth-er Na-ture's re-ci-pes
that bring the bare ne-cess-i-ties of life.
Wher-ev-er I wan-der, wher-ev-er I roam
I could-n't be fond-er of my big home.
The bees are buzz-in' in the tree
to make some hon-ey just for me,
the bare ne-cess-i-ties of life will come to you.
