Well, life on the farm is kinda laid back
Ain't much an old country boy like me can't hack
Early to rise, early in the sack
Thank God I'm a country boy
A simple kind of life never did me no harm
A-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 comin' up, I got cakes on the riddle
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 settin' low
I pull up my fiddle and I rosin up the bow
But 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 and 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 comin' up, I got cakes on the riddle
Life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle
Thank God I'm a country boy (yee-haw!)

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 farmin' tools
Thank God I'm a country boy
Yeah, city folk drivin' in a black limousine
A lot of sad people thinking that's a-mighty keen
Well, folks, 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 comin' up, I got cakes on the riddle
Life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle
Thank God I'm a country boy (yee-haw!)

Thank God I'm a country boy (yee-haw!)
Well, my fiddle was my daddy's 'til the day he died
He took me by the hand, held me close to his side
He said, "Live a good life and play my fiddle with pride"
Thank God I'm a country boy
My daddy's 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 comin' up, I got cakes on the riddle
Life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle
Thank God I'm a country boy (yee-haw!)
