Country Boy chords

[C]Now I'm just a simple guy

But there's [F]one thing sure as [C]shooting

I [F]hate those folks that [C]think that they're

So [D7]doggone high [G7]fluting

I'd [C]be the same in Hollywood

Or [F]right in my own [C]kitchen

I [F]believe in fussing [C]when you're mad

And [G7]scratching when you're [C]itching

I'm a plain old country boy

A [F]corn-bread loving [C]country boy

[F]I raise cane on [C]Saturday

But I [D7]go to church on [G7]Sunday


I'm a [C]plain old country boy

A [F]corn-bread loving [C]country boy

I'll be l[F]ooking over that o[C]ld gray mule

When the [G7]sun comes up on [C]Monday

Where I come from opportunities

[F]They never were too [C]good

[F]We never had much [C]money

But we [D7]done the best we [G7]could


Ma [C]doctored me from youngin'-hood

With [F]Epsom salts and [C]Iodine

Made my [F]diapers out of old [C]feed sacks

My '[G7]spenders out of plow [C]lines

I'm a plain old country boy

A [F]corn-bread loving [C]country boy

[F]I raise cane on [C]Saturday

But I [D7]go to church on [G7]Sunday


I'm a [C]plain old country boy

A [F]corn-bread loving [C]country boy

I'll be l[F]ooking over that o[C]ld gray mule

When the [G7]sun comes up on [C]Monday

Every time the preacher called

[F]Ma always fixed a [C]chicken

[F]If I'd reach for a [C]drumstick

I was [D7]sure to get a [G7]licking


She [C]always saved two parts for me

But [F]I had to shut my [C]mouth

T'was the [F]gizzard and the [C]north end

Of a [G7]chicken flying [C]south

I'm a plain old country boy

A [F]corn-bread loving [C]country boy

[F]I raise cane on [C]Saturday

But I [D7]go to church on [G7]Sunday


I'm a [C]plain old country boy

A [F]corn-bread loving [C]country boy

I'll be l[F]ooking over that o[C]ld gray mule

When the [G7]sun comes up on [C]Monday
