Country Boy lyrics

Now, I`m just a simple guy

But there`s one thing sure as shootin`

I hate those folks that think that they`re

So doggone high fa lutin

I`d be the same in Hollywood

Or right in my own kitchen

I believe in fussin` when you`re mad

And scratchin` when you`re itchin`.



CHORUS

I`m a plain, old country boy

A corn-bread lovin` country boy

I raise cain on Saturday

But I go to church on Sunday

I`m a plain, old country boy

A corn-bread lovin` country boy

I`ll be lookin` over that old grey mule

When the sun comes up on Monday.



Where I come from, opportunities, they never were too good

We never had much money, but we done the best we could

Ma doctored me from youngin-hood, with Epson salts and Iodine

Made my diapers out of old feed sacks, my `spenders out of plow lines.



CHORUS



Every time the preacher called, Ma always fixed a chicken

If I`d reach for a drumstick, I was sure to get a lickin`

She always saved two parts for me, But I had to shut my mouth

T`was the gizzard and the North end of a chicken flyin` South.



CHORUS
