Melody & Lyrics on track 1

Well, life 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'sa 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...

Well, life 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...
