Thank God I'm A Country Boy

Well life on the farm is kinda laid back

Ain't much no country boy like me

Can't hack until it arise

Early in the sack

I thank god I'm a country boy

Well the simple kind of life never did me no harm

Raising me a family and working on the farm

The days are all filled with an easy country charm

I thank god I'm a country boy

Well I got me a fine wife I got me old fiddle

When the sun's coming up I got cakes on the griddle

Life ain't nothing but a funny funny riddle

Thank god I'm a country boy

When the work's all done and the sun's set low

I pull out my fiddle and I'm rising up the bow

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 can I work when I should

Thank god I'm a country boy

Well I got me a fine wife I got me old fiddle

When the sun's comin up I got cakes on the griddle

Life ain't nothin but a funny funny riddle

Thank god I'm a country boy woo hoo

Well I wouldn't trade my life for diamonds or jewels

I never was one of them money hungry fools

Rather have a fiddle than my farmman tools

Thank god I'm a

Country boy yeah

City folk driving in a black limousine

A lotta sad people thinking that's a mighty keen son

Let me tell you now exactly what I mean

I thank god I'm a country boy

Well I got me a fine wife I got me a fiddle

When the sun's coming up I got cakes on the griddle

Life ain't nothing but a funny funny riddle

Thank god I'm a country boy yes sir

Well my fiddle was my daddy's till the day he died

He took me by the hand held me close to his side

He said live a good life play the fiddle with pride

But thank god you're a country boy

Well 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 funny funny riddle

Thank god I'm a country boy yeah
