I got a crib full of corn and a turnin' plow But the ground's too wet for the hopper now I got a cultivator and a double tree And a leather line for the haw and gee Let the thunder roll and the lightning flash I'm doin' alright for country trash
I'm savin' up dimes for a rainy day And I got about a dollar laid away The winds from the south and the fishin's good Got a pot belly stove and a cord of wood Mama turns a left overs into hash So I'm doin' alright for country trash
I got a mackinaw and a huntin' dog And a cap that I ordered from the catalog A big tall tree that shades the yard A big fat sow for the winter's lard Let the thunder roll and the lightning flash I'm doin' alright for country trash
Well there's not much new ground KLeft to plow and crops need fertilizin' now My hands don't earn me too much gold For security when I grow old But we'll all be equal when we're under the grass And God's got a heaven for country trash And God's got a heaven for country trash And I'll be doin' alright for country trash
