[Verse 1]
        Bb                F
Country boy, ain't got no shoes
        Bb                F
Country boy, ain't got no blues
          F
Well, you work all day while you're wantin' to play
       F
In the sun and the sand, with a face that's tanned
           F
But at the end of the day when your work is done
    C7        C7/G        F
You ain't got nothing but fun
[Verse 2]
        Bb                F
Country boy, ain't got no ills
        Bb                F
Country boy, don't owe no bills
          F
You get a wiggly worm and then you watch him squirm
          F
While you put him on a hook and then you drop him in the brook
       F
And if everything's gonna turn out right
       C7        C7/G   F
You're gonna fry fish tonight
[Chorus]
        Bb                  F
Country boy, your luck it's free
        Bb                C                F
Country boy, I wish I was you, and you was me
[Solo]

[Verse 3]
        Bb               F
Country boy, got work to do
        Bb                  F
Country boy, in the mornin' dew
          F
You gotta cut the weeds, you got to plant the seeds
        F
There's many a row you know you gotta hoe
              F
But when it's quittin' time and your work is through
C7               C7/G    F
There's a lot of life in you
[Verse 4]
        Bb                F
Country boy, got a shaggy dog
        Bb               F
Country boy, up a holler log
         F
Well, he comes at a run when you pick up your gun
           F
And with a shell or two, and your dog and you
         F
When you get your rabbit, you'll skin his hide
C7         C7/G    F
He's gonna be good fried
[Outro]
        Bb                    F
Country boy, you got a lot to lose
        Bb              C             F
Country boy, how I wish I was in your shoes
