Country boy, ain't got no shoes
Country boy, ain't got no blues
Well, you work all day while you're waitin' to play
In the sun and the sand, with cheeks of tan
But at the end of the day, when your work is done
You ain't got nothin' but fun
Country boy, don't owe no bills
Country boy, ain't got no ills
You got a wiggly worm and then you watch him squirm
While you put him on a hook and you drop him in a brook
If everything's gonna turn out right, you're gonna fry fish tonight
Country boy, you lucky free
Country boy, I wish I was you, and you was me
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
Country boy, 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
Country boy, you got a lot to lose
Country boy, how I wish I was in your shoes
