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
At the end of the day
When your work is done
You ain´t got nothing but fun

Country boy ain´t got no ills
Country boy, you don´t owe no bills

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
If everything´s gonna turn out right
You´re gonna fry fish tonight

Country boy, got a lot to lose
Country boy, how I wish I was in your shoes

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, got a lot to lose
Country boy, how I wish I was in your shoes

Country boy got work to do
Country boy in the morning dew
You got to plant the seed
You got to cut the weed
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, you´re lucky free
Country boy, I wish I was you and you was me
