Paroles de 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
I 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 ol' fiddle
When the sun's comin' up i got cakes on the griddle
And 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 settlin' low
I pull out the 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 can an' i work when i should
Thank god i'm a country boy

Well i got me a fine wife i got me ol' 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, ooo

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

Yea, city folk drivin' in a black limousine
A lotta sad people thinkin' that's a mighty keen
Well 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 ol' 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

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
An' 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, to play a tune on the fiddle
He taught me how to love an' how to give just a little
An' thank god i'm a country boy

Well i got me a fine wife i got me ol' fiddle
When the sun's comin' up i got cakes on the griddle
Life ain't nothin' but a funny funny riddle
Ooo, thank god i'm a country boy, yes
