[Verso 1]
Country boy, ain't got no shoes
Country boy, ain't got no blues
Well, you work all day
While you're wanting to play
In the sun and the sand
With a face that's tan
But at the end of the day
When your work is done
You ain't got nothing but fun
[Coro 1]
Country boy, ain't got no ills
Country boy, don't owe no bills
[Verso 2]
You get a wiggly worm
And then you watch him squirm
While you put him on a hook
And you drop him in a brook
And if everything's gonna turn out right
You're gonna fry fish tonight
[Coro 2]
Country boy, you're lucky free
Country boy, I wish I was you, and you was me
[Verso 2]
Country boy, got work to do
Country boy, in the morning dew
You got to cut the weeds
You got to plant the seeds
There's many a row
You know you gotta hoe
But when it's quittin' time
And your work is through
There's a lot of life in you
[Verso 3]
Country boy, you got a shaggy dog
Country boy, up a holler log
Well, he comes in a run
When you pick up your gun
And with a shell or two
And your dog and you
When you get your rabbit
You'll skin his hide
He's gonna be good fried
[Coro 3]
Country boy, got a lot to lose
Country boy, how I wish I was in your shoes
