Williams, Don - I'm Just A Country Boy Lyrics






I ain't gonna marry in the fall
I ain't gonna marry in the spring
'Cause I'm in love with a pretty little girl
Who wears a diamond ring.

And I'm just a country boy
Money have I none
But I'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 me
I know she'd turn me down.

'Cause I'm just a country boy
Money have I none
But I've got silver in the stars
And gold in the mornin' sun
Gold in the mornin' sun.

I never could afford
A store bought ring
With a sparkling diamond stone
All I could afford
Is a loving heart
The only one I own.

'Cause I'm just a country boy
Money have I none
But I've got silver in the stars
And gold in the mornin' sun
Gold in the mornin' sun...

    RIP Legend

    OK, before you get all worked up, I'm a "Don" man period, done bought and paid for. But, I was fishin' around and came across a recording of I'm just a country boy, by of all people Sam Cooke. I grew up during the 50's and 60's it's of that time. Don't remember ever hearing it. Not in the same class with Don, but interesting. If you're killin' time, check it out, see what you think.

  3. R.... T....

    Uma das minhas preferidas.

  4. M.... H....

    Soothing voice and wonderful message. Don is is King of the soul.

  5. M.... M....

    Rest in peace sweet gentle giant. Sad day for Country Music went you left. :-(

  6. E.... C....

    My parents used to play this song all the time when i was growing up in Africa in the late 70's and early 80's. Guess it's in my genes now cause my 5 year old daughter sings it with me when we're driving.

    Anyone still listening in 2019?😍

    any one 2019 november

  10. J.... B....

    I feel this is a masterpiece. A man confessing his love and believing himself inadequate some how proves he has everything a woman would wish for (in the true love sense). It is phrased so laid back, so behind the beat, you'll think he's lying in a hammock. The Lloyd Green steel guitar...perfect

  11. R.... S....

    Never gets old

  12. N.... I....

    This music is beyond me... just perfect! Still listening in 2019

  13. K.... P....

  31. H.... F....

    Waaaaaah! Miss you so much, Don William's. No doubt you are singing in the land of gold and silver now.

    RIP "GENTLE GIANT" SO BLESSED I GOT TO SEE YOU LIVE IN 1978! FAREWELL MY FELLOW COUNTRY BOY

  94. A.... F....

    A beautiful baritone voice with this soothing relaxing music. This could be a real-life situation so is comforting for such ones going through this. The 27 thumbdowners must be despicable cold unloving people that I don't want in my happy life; stay away from me negative miserable people haha. Thank you, Maureen. I love Don Williams' music and seen him live six times, a memorable evening. Agape. Andrew.

  95. D.... R....

    Beautiful song.

    People county music has died

  97. J.... F....

    This is the song that launched Don's country career and transition from the Pozo Seco Singers folk group in the 1960s.

  98. M.... U....

    We have missed a great singer. His songs are evergreen. They releases love and harmonic spirit in the atmosphere whenever they are played. RIPP great hero of songs.
