Thank God I'm a Country Boy

Thank God I'm A Country Boy - Hampton the Hampster

Well life on the farm is kinda laid back

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

Early to rise early in the sack

Thank God I'm a country boy

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 funny 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 can and 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 funny funny riddle

Thank God I'm a country boy

Thank God I'm a country boy

I wouldn't trade my life for diamonds and 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

Now folks 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 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

Thank God I'm a country boy

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 and play my fiddle with pride"

Thank God I'm a country boy

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

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
