Yeah, but:

        @set -ex; \
        cd debian/tmp; \
        find . -path "./DEBIAN" -prune -o -type f -printf '%P\0' \
           | xargs -r0 md5sum > DEBIAN/md5sums

(from debian-policy's rules file).  dh_md5sums isn't particularly
complicated, although admittedly it deals with a few more cases for you,
such as multiple packages.
