Thank god I'm a country boy　John 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，乡村里的生活是如此的悠闲
像我这样的老乡下孩子也不能使它变得陈腐
在这里大家早睡早起
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子

像这样简单平凡的生活从来不曾给我带来伤害
我建立了一个家庭，在农场里工作
我的生活满足于单纯的乡村魅力
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子

噢，我娶了个好妻子，有一把旧小提琴
当太阳升起时，我的蛋糕会放在煎锅里
生活中除了有趣之外别无他物
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，所以我必须保持小声
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子

如果可以，我会演奏一整天的"萨莉－GOODIN"
但上帝和我的妻子会忍受不了
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，我娶了个好妻子，有一把旧小提琴
当太阳升起时，我的蛋糕会放在煎锅里
生活中除了有趣之外别无他物
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子

噢，我不会拿现在的生活去交换钻石珠宝
我从来就不是那群渴望着金钱的傻瓜之一
我宁愿拥有我的小提琴和农场工具
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子

城市里的人们开着豪华的黑色大轿车
许多可悲的人以为那会使人羡慕不已
孩子，现在我告诉你我的真正想法
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子

噢，我娶了个好妻子，有一把旧小提琴
当太阳升起时，我的蛋糕会放在煎锅里
生活中除了有趣之外别无他物
感谢上帝我是个乡下孩子

噢，我的小提琴是父亲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"

我的爸爸曾教我如何打猎和做木工
他教我如何工作以及为小提琴调音
他教我怎么去爱，怎样避免付出太多
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子

噢，我娶了个好妻子，有一把旧小提琴
当太阳升起时，我的蛋糕会放在煎锅里
生活中除了有趣之外别无他物
感谢上帝，我是个乡下孩子
