Lyrics

You're just a country boy

Ain't gonna marry in the fall
Ain't gonna marry in the spring
For you're in love with a pretty little girl
Who wears a diamond ring

'Cause you're just a country boy
Money have you none
But you've got silver in the stars
Gold in the mornin' sun
Gold in the mornin' sun

Never gonna kiss
The ruby red lips
Of the prettiest girl in town
Never gonna ask her if she'd
Marry you
She'd only turn me down

'Cause you're just a country boy
Money have you none
But you've got silver in the stars
Gold in the mornin' sun
Gold in the mornin' sun

Never could afford
A store bought ring
With a sparkling diamond stone
All you can afford
Is a loving heart
The only one you own

'Cause you're just a country boy
Money have you none
But you've got silver in the stars
Gold in the mornin' sun
Gold in the mornin' sun
