Well, my Afiddle was my daddy's till the day he Ddied
And he Atook me by the hand and held meG close to his E7side
He said: &Aquot;Live a good life and plaE7y my fiddle Dwith pride
And thank AGod you're a E7country bAoy
My daddy Ataught me young how to hunt and how to Dwhittle
He Ataught me how to work and play a Gtune on the E7fiddle
He Ataught me how to love and how to E7give just a Dlittle
Spoken: Thank AGod I’m E7a countrAy boy

When the E7sun's comin' up I got Acakes on the griddle
And Alife ain't nothin' but a E7funny, funny rDiddle
Thank AGod I'm a E7country Aboy Yeehaw!
