[00:07.36]It's early to rise, early in the sack

[00:11.47]
[00:12.05]Well a simple kinda life never did me no harm
[00:14.63]A raisin' me a family and workin' on a farm
[00:17.07]My days are all filled with an easy country charm
[00:19.61]Thank God I'm a country boy
[00:21.22]
[00:22.93]Well, I got me a fine wife, I got me old fiddle
[00:24.38]When the sun's comin' up I got cakes on the griddle
[00:27.02]Life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle
[00:29.52]Thank God I'm A country boy
[00:31.35]
[00:32.89]When the work's all done and the sun's settin' low
[00:34.52]I pull out my fiddle and I rosin' up the bow
[00:37.00]The kids are asleep so I keep it kinda low
[00:39.65]Thank God I'm a country boy

[00:41.97]I'd play "Sally Goodin'" all day if I could
[00:44.46]But the Lord and my wife wouldn't take it very good
[00:46.86]So I fiddle when I can, work when I should

[01:22.50]Well I wouldn't trade my life for diamonds or jewels

[01:27.26]I'd rather have my fiddle and my farmin' tools
[01:29.95]Thank God I'm a country boy

[02:12.75]Well, my fiddle was my daddy's til the day he died
[02:15.14]And he took me by the hand and held me close to his side
[02:17.71]He said...'Live a good life and play my fiddle with pride
[02:20.40]And thank God you're a country boy"
[02:22.15]
[02:22.93]My daddy taught me young how to hunt and how to whittle
[02:25.39]He taught me how to work and play a tune on the fiddle
[02:27.81]Taught me how to love and how to give just a little
[02:33.25]Thank God I'm a country boy
