Country Lovin’ Son of a Gun

[Verse 1]
Gettin' up and feedin' my pups
Early at the crack of dawn
Check the hens and the old hog-pen
Mama's got the coffee on

[Chorus]
I stay so long 'cause the last night's due
Good morning to the rising sun
I'm a Carolina farm-boy, don't mean no harm boy
Country-lovin' son of a gun

[Verse 2]
The corn's laid by, the cotton is high
Got the [?] on the run
Big bass bitin' in old Cripple Creek
And I'm goin' down to catch me some
That squaredance on for Saturday night
I'm takin' that special one

[Chorus]
I'm a Carolina farm-boy, don't mean no harm boy
Country-lovin' son of a gun

[Verse 3]
I can feel that mountain blood, that's flowin' through my veins
It keeps me high as the summer sky, and free as a midnight train
When tomorrow fades to yesterday, my song will still be sung
I'm a Carolina farm-boy, don't mean no harm boy
Country-lovin' son of a gun

[Verse 4]
When the sun goes down, we all gather 'round
To sing some old-time hymns
Thе chirp of the crickets, the drip of thе spickets
Seems to fit right in
Later on, when the lights are gone
I'm dreamin' while the treefrogs hum
I'm a Carolina farm-boy, don't mean no harm boy
Country lovin' son of a gun

[Verse 5]
I can feel that mountain blood, that's flowin' through my veins
It keeps me high as the summer sky, and free as a midnight train
When tomorrow fades to yesterday, my song will still be sung
I'm a Carolina farm-boy, don't mean no harm boy
Country-lovin' son of a gun

[Outro]
I'm a Carolina farm-boy, don't mean no harm boy
Country-lovin' son of a gun
