Well, life on the farm is kinda laid back Ain't much of an old country boy like me can't hack
Third little ride, early in the sack Thank God I'm a country boy
Well, a simple kinda life never did me no harm Raisin' me a family and workin' on the farm
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 comin' up, the pancakes on the griddle
Life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle Thank God I'm a country boy
[C#] [A] When the work's all done and the [Dm] sun sets [A] low Pull out my [G] fiddle and I razzin' up [A] the bow
Kids are asleep so [D] I keep a tattle-o And [A] thank God I'm a country boy
I'd play Sally Gooden all [D] day if I [A] could But the Lord and my [G] wife wouldn't take it very [D] good
So I fiddle when [E] I can, [D] work when I should [A] Thank God I'm a country boy

I'd rather have [E] my fiddle and [D] my farmland too [A] Thank God I'm a country boy
Yeah, I see the folks drivin' in the black limousine A lot of sad [G] people thinkin' that I'm a mighty [A] king
Son, let me tell you [D] now exactly what I mean I [A] thank God I'm a country boy
