Thank god I'm a country boyJohn Denver
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
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子约翰丹佛
噢，乡村里的生活是这样的悠闲
像我如此的老乡下孩子也不可以使它变得陈腐
在这里大伙早睡早起
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子
像如此简单平凡的生活从来不曾给我带来伤害
我打造了一个家庭，在农场里工作
我的生活满足于单纯的乡村魔力
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子
噢，我娶了个好老婆，有一把旧小提琴
当太阳升起时，我的蛋糕会放在煎锅里
日常除去有趣以外别无他物
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子
当工作结束，夕阳西沉
我就搬出小提琴，用松香涂满弓弦
孩子们都睡了，所以我需要维持小声
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子
假如可以，我会演奏一整天的萨莉－GOODIN
但上帝和我的老婆会忍受不了
所以我只在被允许时拉琴，应该工作时我就工作
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子
噢，我娶了个好老婆，有一把旧小提琴
当太阳升起时，我的蛋糕会放在煎锅里
日常除去有趣以外别无他物
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子
噢，我不会拿目前的生活去交换钻石珠宝
我从来就不是那群渴看着资金的傻瓜之一
我宁可拥有我的小提琴和农场工具
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子
城市里的大家开着豪华的黑色大轿车
很多可悲的人以为那会使人羡慕不已
孩子，目前我对你说我的真的想法
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子
噢，我娶了个好老婆，有一把旧小提琴
当太阳升起时，我的蛋糕会放在煎锅里
日常除去有趣以外别无他物
感谢上帝我是个乡下孩子
噢，我的小提琴是爸爸在死去那天留给我的
当时他用手抓住我，将我搂向他身旁
他说好好活着，自豪的拉我的小提琴吧
感谢上帝，你是个乡下孩子
我的父亲曾教我怎么样狩猎和做木工
他教我怎么样工作与为小提琴调音
他教我如何去爱，如何防止付出太多
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子
噢，我娶了个好老婆，有一把旧小提琴
当太阳升起时，我的蛋糕会放在煎锅里
日常除去有趣以外别无他物
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子
