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 and gold in morning sun gold in morning 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

Never could afford a store bought ring with the sparkling diamond stone
All I could afford is a loving heart the only one I own
Cause I'm just a country boy
