Country boy ain't got no shoes country boy ain't got no blues Well you work all day while you're wantin' 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 nothin' but fun Country boy ain't got no ills country boy 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 And of everything's gonna turn out right you're gonna fry fish tonight Country boy you're lucky free country boy I wish I was you and you was me [ guitar ] Country boy got work to do country boy in the morning dew You gotta cut the weeds you gotta 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 lots to lose country boy how I wish I was in your shoes
