G                       C
Well, life on the farm is kinda laid back,
G                       D
Ain't much an old country boy like me can't hack.
G                      C
It's early to rise, early in the sack,
G                      D               G
Thank God I'm a country boy.

G                     C
Well, a simple kind of life never did me no harm,
G                         D
Raising me a family and working on a farm.
G                     C
My days are all filled with an easy country charm,
G                      D               G
Thank God I'm a country boy.

G                     C
Well, I got me a fine wife, I got me old fiddle,
G                     D
When the sun's coming up, you can hear me yodel.
G                        C
The kids are a-calling, the cows are a-bellow,
G                      D               G
Thank God I'm a country boy.

G                      C
Well, I wouldn't trade my life for diamonds or jewels,
G                       D
I never was one of them money-hungry fools.
G                     C
I'd rather have my lady by my side,
G                       D               G
Thank God I'm a country boy.
