  COUNTRY BOY

  Recorded by Little Jimmy Dickens

  Written by Felice and Boudleaux Bryant

  

  

  [D] Now, I'm just a simple guy

  

  But there's [G] one thing sure as [D] shootin'

  

  I [G] hate those folks that [D] think that they're

  

  So [E] doggone high fa-[A] lut-in

  

  I'd [D] be the same in Hollywood

  

  Or [G] right in my own [D] kitchen

  

  I [G] believe in fussin' [D] when you're mad

  

  And [A] scratchin' when you're [D] itchin'.

  

  

  CHORUS

  [D] I'm a plain, old country boy

  

  A [G] corn-bread lovin' [D] country boy

  

  [G] I raise cain on [D] Saturday

  

  But I [E] go to church on [A] Sunday

  

  I'm a [D] plain, old country boy

  

  A [G] corn-bread lovin' [D] country boy

  

  (A [G] 'tater-eatin' [D] country boy - LAST CHORUS)

  

  I'll be [G] lookin' over that [D] old grey mule

  

  When the [A] sun comes up on [D] 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
