Thank God I'm A Country Boy

In the style of

John Denver

Lyrics

well life on the 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' me a family
and workin'
on the farm

my days are all filled
with an easy
country charm
a-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 settin' low
i pull out my fiddle
and i rosin up the bow

the kids are asleep
so i keep it kinda low
and 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
work when i should
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

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

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-a mighty keen

son let me
tell ya now
exactly what i mean
i 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
yes sir

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

said live a good life
play my fiddle
with pride
and 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
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

life ain't nothin' but
a funny funny riddle
woo thank god
i'm a country boy yeah
