Karaoké Thank God I'm a Country Boy John Denver

Well life on the farm is kinda laid back

Ain't much an old country boy like me can't hack

It's early to rise and early in the sack

Thank God I'm a country boy

Well a simple kind of life never did me no harm

Raisin' me a family and a workin' 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 griddle

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 out my fiddle and

I rosin' up the bow

The kids are all asleep so I keep it kinda low

Thank God I'm a country boy

I'd play "Sally Gooden" all day if I could

But the Lord and my wife wouldn't take it very good

So I fiddle when I can

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 comin' up

I got cakes on the griddle

Life ain't nothin' but a funny funny riddle

Thank God I'm a country boy whoa

Well I wouldn't trade my life for diamonds or jewels

I never was one of them money hungry fools

I'd rather have a fiddle and my farming tools

Thank God I'm a country boy

Yeah city folks drivin' in a black limousine

A lot a sad people thinkin' that's a mighty keen

Well son let me tell ya 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 griddle

Life ain't nothin' 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 held me close to his side

Said live a good life play my fiddle with pride

Thank God I'm a country boy

Well my daddy taught me young how to hunt and how to whittle

Taught me how I would play a tune on the fiddle

He taught me how to love and how to give just a little

I 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 griddle

Life ain't nothin' but a funny funny riddle

Whoa

Thank God I'm a country boy, yes
