Country boy Ain't got no shoes Country boy Ain't got no blues Well you work all day while you're waiting to play In the sun and the sand with a face that's tan At the end of the day when your work is done You ain't got nothing but fun Country boy Ain't got no wills Country boy You don't owe no bills You get a wiggly worm and then you watch him squirm While you put him on a hook and you drop him in a brook If everything's gonna turn out right You're gonna fry fish tonight Country boy You're lucky free Country boy I wish I was you and you was me Country boy You got work to do Country boy In the morning dew You gotta plant the seed you gotta cut the weeds There's many a row you know you gotta hoe When it's quitting time and your work is through There's a lot of life in you Country boy You got a shaggy dog Country boy Up a hollow log Well he comes in a run when you pick up your gun And with a shell or two and your dog and you When you get your rabbit you'll skin his hide He's gonna be good fried Country boy You got a lot to lose Country boy How I wish I was in your shoes
