[00:03.13] Well life on the farm is kinda laid back
[00:05.38] Aint much an old country boy like me cant hack
[00:08.06] Its early to rise, early in the sack
[00:10.06] Thank God Im a country boy
[00:12.31] Well a simple kinda life never did me no harm
[00:14.88] A raisin me a family and workin on a farm
[00:17.19] My days are all filled with an easy country charm
[00:19.81] Thank God Im a country boy
[00:21.94] Well I got me a fine wife I got me a fiddle
[00:24.50] When the suns comin up I got cakes on the griddle
[00:27.69] Life aint nothin but a funy funny riddle
[00:29.94] Thank God Im a country boy
[00:31.69] When the works all done and the suns settlin low
[00:34.63] I pull out my fiddle and I rosin up the bow
[00:37.00] The kids are asleep so I keep it kinda low
[00:41.00] Thank God Im a country boy
