Thank God I'm A Country Boy

作曲：J.M.Summers

well life on a 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 up a family and workin on a farm

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 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

when the work's all done and the sun's setting low

i pull out my fiddle and i rosing up the bow

the kids are asleep so i keep it kinda low

thank god i'm a country boy

i'd play sally gooding all day if i could

but the lord and my wife wouldn't take it very good

so i fiddle when i can 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 riddle

life ain't nothin but a funny funny riddle

thank god i'm a country boy

well i wouldn't trade my life for diamonds or jewels

i never was one of them money grabbing fools

thank god i'm a country boy

yeah city folks driving in a black limousine a

lotta sad people thinkin that's a mighty keen son

let me tell you now exactly what i mean

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 riddle

life ain't nothin' 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

and he took me by the hand pulled me close to his side

said live a good life play the fiddle with pride

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 play a two dollar fiddle

taught me how to love and how to give just a little woo
