Thank God I'm a Country Boy (感谢上帝,我是个乡下孩子) - John Denver (约翰·丹佛)

Well life's 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 kind of life never did me no harm

Raising me a family and working on the 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 coming up I got cakes on the griddle

And 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 setting 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 Gooding 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 coming up I got cakes on the griddle

And life ain't nothing but a funny funny riddle thank God I'm a country boy

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 farming 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 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

And life ain't nothing 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 and held me close to his side

He said "Live a good life and play my fiddle with pride

And thank God you're 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 old fiddle

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

And life ain't nothing but a funny funny riddle thank God I'm a country boy
