John Denver Thank God I’m a Country Boy Lyrics [Verse 1] Well, life on a farm is kinda laid back Ain't much an old country boy like me can't hack It's early to rise, early in the sack Thank God I'm a country boy Well, a simple kind of life never did me no harm A-raisin' me a family and working on the farm My days are all filled with an easy country charm Thank God I'm a country boy [Chorus] Well, I got me a fine wife, I got me old fiddle When the sun's coming up, I got cakes on the griddle And life ain't nothing but a funny, funny riddle Thank God I'm a country boy [Verse 2]
