Lyrics

[00:07.44] Well life on the farm is kinda laid back
[00:09.26] Ain't much an old country boy like me can't hack
[00:11.43] Early to rise, early in the sack
[00:13.81] Thank God I'm a country boy
[00:15.60] A simple kinda life never did me no harm
[00:17.54] A raisin' me a family and workin' on a farm
[00:19.41] My days are all filled with an easy country charm
[00:21.63] Thank God I'm a country boy
[00:23.68] Well I got me a fine wife, I got me a fiddle
[00:25.37] When the sun's comin' up I got cakes on the griddle
[00:27.17] Life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle
[00:29.93] Thank God I'm a country boy
[00:32.24] When the work's all done and the sun's settlin' low
[00:34.10] I pull out my fiddle and I rosin up the bow
[00:35.92] The kids are asleep so I keep it kinda low
[00:38.11] Thank God I'm a country boy
[00:40.12]
[00:42.90] But the Lord and my wife wouldn't take it very good
[00:43.91] So I fiddle when I can, and work when I should
[00:46.29] Thank God I'm a country boy
[00:48.19] Well I got me a fine wife, I got me a fiddle
[00:49.94] When the sun's comin' up I got cakes on the griddle
[00:52.10] Life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle
[00:56.62] Thank God I'm a country boy
[00:58.70]
[01:12.42] Thank God I'm a country boy
[01:14.28] I wouldn't trade my life for diamonds and jewels
[01:16.80] I never was one of them money hungry fools
[01:17.97] I'd rather have my fiddle and my farmin' tools
[01:20.32] Thank God I'm a country boy
[01:22.29] Yeah, city folk drivin' in a black Limousine
[01:24.14] A lotta sad people thinkin' that's mighty keen
[01:26.10] Now folks, let me tell you now exactly what I mean
[01:28.37] Thank God I'm a country boy
[01:30.30] Well I got me a fine wife, I got me a fiddle
[01:32.50] When the sun's comin' up I got cakes on the griddle
[01:33.99] Life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle
[01:38.37] Thank God I'm a country boy
[01:40.83]
[01:54.45] Thank God I'm a country boy
[01:56.22] Well, my fiddle was my daddy's till the day he died
[01:58.13] He took me by the hand, held me close to his side
[02:00.20] He said, "Live a good life and play my fiddle with pride"
[02:02.35] Thank God I'm a country boy
[02:04.29] My daddy taught me young how to hunt and how to whittle
[02:06.17] He taught me how to work and play a tune on the fiddle
[02:07.96] He taught me how to love and how to give just a little
[02:11.23] Thank God I'm a country boy
[02:13.12] Well I got me a fine wife, I got me a fiddle
[02:14.99] When the sun's comin' up I got cakes on the griddle
[02:16.99] Life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle
[02:20.71] Thank God I'm a country boy
[02:23.80]
[02:37.36] Thank God I'm a country boy
