When it's quittin' time, and your work is through
Country boy
Well you work all day while you're waitin' to play
Country boy
At the end of the day, when your work is done
How I wish I was in your shoes
You get a wiggly worm and then you watch him squirm
You got a lot to lose
He's gonna be good fried
Country boy
Up a hollow log
While you put him on a hook and you drop him in a brook
Country boy
When you get your rabbit, you'll skin his hide
Ain't got no wills
Country boy
If everything's gonna turn out right
You gotta plant the seed, you gotta cut the weeds
You don't owe no bills
Well he comes in a run, when you pick up your gun
Country boy
Country boy
And with a shell or two and your dog and you
You got work to do
You're lucky free
In the sun and the sand, with a face that's tan
You're gonna fry fish tonight
Country boy
There's many a row you know you gotta hoe
In the morning dew
Country boy
You ain't got nothin' but fun
Country boy
Country boy
You got a lot to lose
There's a lot of life in you
Country boy
How I wish I was in your shoes
You got a shaggy dog
Ain't got no blues
Country boy
