Lyrics

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
