Well life on the farm is kinda laid back | |
Ain't much an old country boy like me can't hack | |
It's early to rise, early in the sack | |
Thank god i'm a country boy | |
Well a simple kinda life never did me no harm | |
A raisin' me a family and workin' on a farm | |
My days are all filled with an easy country charm | |
Thank god i'm a country boy | |
Well i got me a fine wife i got me a fiddle | |
When the sun's comin' up i got cakes on the griddle | |
Life ain't nothin' but a funy funny riddle | |
Thank god i'm a country boy | |
When the work's all done and the sun's settlin' low | |
I pull out my fiddle and i rosin up the bow | |
The kids are asleep so i keep it kinda low | |
Thank god i'm a country boy | |
I'd play ※sally goodin'§ all day if i could | |
But the lord and my wife wouldn't take it very good | |
So i fiddle when i could, work when i should | |
Thank god i'm a country boy | |
Well i got me a fine wife i got me a fiddle | |
When the sun's comin' up i got cakes on the griddle | |
Life ain't nothin' but a funy funny riddle | |
Thank god i'm a country boy | |
Well i wouldn't trade my life for diamonds and jewels | |
I never was one of them money hungry fools | |
Iid rather have my fiddle and my farmin' tools | |
Thank god i'm a country boy | |
Yeah, city folk drivin' in a black limousine | |
A lotta sad people thinkin' that's mighty keen | |
Son, let me tell ya now exactly what i mean | |
Thank god i'm a country boy | |
Well i got me a fine wife i got me a fiddle | |
When the sun's comin' up i got cakes on the griddle | |
Life ain't nothin' but a funy funny riddle | |
Thank god i'm a country boy | |
Well, my fiddle was my daddy's till the day he died | |
And he took me by the hand and held me close to his side | |
Said, ※live a good life and play my fiddle with pride | |
And thank god you're a country boy | |
My daddy taught me young how to hunt and how to whittle | |
Taught me how to work and play a tune on the fiddle | |
Taught me how to love and how to give just a little | |
Thank god i'm a country boy | |
Well i got me a fine wife i got me a fiddle | |
When the sun's comin' up i got cakes on the griddle | |
Life ain't nothin' but a funy funny riddle | |
Thank god i'm a country boy | |
Thank god i'm a country boy | |
