[00:00.01]
[00:00.02]
[00:02.83] well, life on the farm is kinda laid back
[00:04.97] ain't much an old country boy like me can't hack
[00:07.36] it's early to rise, early in the sack
[00:09.84] thank god, i'm a country boy
[00:11.47]
[00:12.05] well a simple kinda life never did me no harm
[00:14.63] a raisin' me a family and workin' on a farm
[00:17.07] my days are all filled with an easy country charm
[00:19.61] thank god i'm a country boy
[00:21.22]
[00:22.93] well, i got me a fine wife, i got me old fiddle
[00:24.38] when the sun's comin' up i got cakes on the griddle
[00:27.02] life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle
[00:29.52] thank god i'm a country boy
[00:31.35]
[00:32.89] when the work's all done and the sun's settin' low
[00:34.52] i pull out my fiddle and i rosin' up the bow
[00:37.00] the kids are asleep so i keep it kinda low
[00:39.65] thank god i'm a country boy
[00:41.33]
[00:41.97] i'd play "sally goodin'" all day if i could
[00:44.46] but the lord and my wife wouldn't take it very good
[00:46.86] so i fiddle when i can, work when i should
[00:49.64] thank god, i'm a country boy
[00:51.35]
[00:52.06] well, i got me a fine wife, i got me old fiddle
[00:54.27] when the sun's comin' up i got cakes on the griddle
[00:57.14] life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle
[00:59.84] thank god i'm a country boy
[01:01.55]
[01:22.50] well i wouldn't trade my life for diamonds or jewels
[01:24.85] i never was one of them money hungry fools
[01:27.26] i'd rather have my fiddle and my farmin' tools
[01:29.95] thank god i'm a country boy
[01:31.61]
[01:32.32] yeah, city folk drivin' in a black limousine
[01:34.87] a lotta sad people thinkin' that's a mighty keen
[01:37.39] son, let me tell ya now exactly what i mean
[01:39.98] i thank god i'm a country boy
[01:41.68]
[01:42.42] well, i got me a fine wife, i got me old fiddle
[01:44.82] when the sun's comin' up i got cakes on the griddle
[01:47.54] life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle
[01:50.17] thank god i'm a country boy
[01:51.86]
[02:12.75] well, my fiddle was my daddy's til the day he died
[02:15.14] and he took me by the hand and held me close to his side
[02:17.71] he said...'live a good life and play my fiddle with pride
[02:20.40] and thank god you're a country boy"
[02:22.15]
[02:22.93] my daddy taught me young how to hunt and how to whittle
[02:25.39] he taught me how to work and play a tune on the fiddle
[02:27.81] taught me how to love and how to give just a little
[02:33.25] thank god i'm a country boy
