verse 1
I may look like a city slicker,
Shinin' up through his shoes.
Underneath I'm just a cotton picker,
Pickin' out a mess of blues.
Shinin' up through his shoes.
Underneath I'm just a cotton picker,
Pickin' out a mess of blues.
chorus
Show me where I start.
Find a horse and cart.
I'm just a country boy,
Country boy at heart.
Find a horse and cart.
I'm just a country boy,
Country boy at heart.
verse 2
I may look like a bank teller,
Pushing facts in a file.
But I'd rather be a hog collar,
Chewing cud on a stile.
Pushing facts in a file.
But I'd rather be a hog collar,
Chewing cud on a stile.
chorus
Show me where I start.
Find a horse and cart.
I'm just a country boy,
Country boy at heart.
Find a horse and cart.
I'm just a country boy,
Country boy at heart.
