Thank God I'm A Country Boy

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 a 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 a fiddle
 When the sun's comin' up I got cakes on the griddle
 Life ain't nothin' but a funy funny riddle
 Thank God I'm a country boy
 When the work's all done and the sun's settlin' 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 goodin all day if I could
 But the lord and my wife wouldn't take it very good
 So I fiddle when I could, work when I should
 Thank God I'm a country boy
 Well I got me a fine wife I got me a fiddle
 When the sun's comin' up I got cakes on the griddle
 Life ain't nothin' but a funy funny riddle
 Thank God I'm a country boy
 Well I wouldn't trade my life for diamonds and jewels
 I never was one of them money hungry fools
 Iid 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 mighty keen
 Son, let me tell ya now exactly what I mean
 Thank God I'm a country boy
 Well I got me a fine wife I got me a fiddle
 When the sun's comin' up I got cakes on the griddle
 Life ain't nothin' but a funy 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
 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
 Taught me how to work and play a tune on the fiddle
 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 a fiddle
 When the sun's comin' up I got cakes on the griddle
 Life ain't nothin' but a funy funny riddle
 Thank God I'm a country boy
 Thank God I'm a country boy
