Thank God I'm a Country Boy

Thank God I'm a Country Boy - The Hit Co. (熱歌公司)

Well, life's on a farm is kinda laid back

Ain't much an old country boy like me can hack

It's early to rise, early in the sack

Thank God I'm a country boy

Well, a simple kind of life never did me no harm

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 old fiddle

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

And 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 settin' 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 can and 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

And life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle

Thank God I'm a country boy, ooh

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

I never was one of them money hungry fools

I'd 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

Well, 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 griddle

And life ain't nothin' but a funny, 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, held me close to his side

"Live a good life and play my fiddle with pride

Thank God you're a country boy"

Well, my daddy taught me young how to hunt and how to whittle

He taught me how to work and play a tune on the fiddle

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

And 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

And life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle, ooh

Thank God I'm a country boy
