Thank God I'm A Country Boy - John Denver
Well life's on a 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 kind of life never did me no harm
raising me a family and working on the 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 old fiddle
When the sun's coming up I got cakes on the griddle
And life ain't nothing but a funny funny riddle thank God I'm a country boy

When the work's all done and the sun's setting 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 Gooding all day if I could
but the lord and my wife wouldn't take it very good
So I fiddle when I can and I work when I should thank God I'm a country boy
Well I got me a fine wife I got me old fiddle
When the sun's coming up I got cakes on the griddle
And life ain't nothing but a funny funny riddle thank God I'm a country boy

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 farming tools thank God I'm a country boy
Yeah city folk driving in a black limousine
a lotta sad people thinking that's-a mighty keen
Son let me tell you now exactly what I mean thank God I'm a country boy

Well I got me a fine wife I got me old fiddle
When the sun's coming up I got cakes on the griddle
And life ain't nothing 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 and held me close to his side
He 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
he taught me how to work and play a tune on the fiddle
He 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 old fiddle
When the sun's coming up I got cakes on the griddle
And life ain't nothing but a funny funny riddle thank God I'm a country boy
