把單純的鄉下生活都描寫出來的一首歌...
輕鬆的曲調...
好像有用到斑鳩琴(我忘了那種樂器是不是叫斑鳩XD)
不過這首歌照理來說應該是要我50歲之後才會有的感動吧...
歌詞中很多事情我覺得很棒...
像是對於羨慕那些開著豪華黑色轎車的人是可悲的...
或者不會拿Dimonds & Jewels去換取現在單純的生活
嘿...其實還是跟現在我某些想法很契合啦...
至少我就覺得騎著機車四處遊玩是自由的象徵...
要我替換成開著車出遊...
等我40歲之後沒那個體力再說啦...
感謝上帝...我...也是個鄉下小孩^^
Well life on the 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 kinda life never did me no harm
A raising me a family and working on a farm
My days are all filled with an easy country charm
Thank God I'm a country boy
Well I got me a fine wife I got me old fiddle
When the songs coming up I got cakes on the griddle
Life ain't nothing but a funny funny riddle
Thank God I'm a country boy
When the work's all done and the songs settling low
I pull out my fiddle and I rosin up the bow
The kids are asleep so I keep it kinda low
Thank God I'm a country boy
I'd play "Sally Goodin" all day if I could
But the lord and my wife wouldn't take it very good
So I fiddle when I can, work when I should
Thank God I'm a country boy
Well I got me a fine wife I got me old fiddle
When the songs coming up I got cakes on the griddle
Life ain't nothing but a funny funny riddle
Thank God I'm a country boy
Well I wouldn't trade my life for diamonds or jewels
I never was one of them money hungry fools
I'd rather have my fiddle and my farming tools
Thank God I'm a country boy
Yeah, city folk driving in a black limousine
A lotta sad people thinking that's mighty keen
Son, let me tell you now exactly what I mean
Thank God I'm a country boy
Well I got me a fine wife I got me old fiddle
When the songs coming up I got cakes on the griddle
Life ain't nothing but a funny funny riddle
Thank God I'm a country boy
Well, my fiddle was my daddy's till the day he died
And he took me by the hand and held me close to his side
Said, "Live a good life and play my fiddle with pride
And thank God you're a country boy"
My daddy taught me young how to hunt and how to whittle
Taught me how to work and play a tune on the fiddle
Taught me how to love and how to give just a little
Thank God I'm a country boy
Well I got me a fine wife, I got me old fiddle
When the songs coming up, I got cakes on the griddle
Life ain't nothing but a funny funny riddle
Thank God I'm a country boy
