歌词
感谢上帝我是个乡村男孩---约翰·丹佛
Thank God I'm a Country Boy
嗯，农场的生活有点懒散
Well, life on the farm is kinda laid back
是不是像我这样的老乡村男孩不能骑马
Ain't much an old country boy like me can't hack
早早地从睡袋中起床
It's early to rise, early in the sack
感谢上帝我是个乡村男孩
Thank God, I'm A Country Boy
嗯，如此简单的生活让我陶醉
Well a simple kinda life never did me no harm
在家中被抚养长大，在农场中辛勤劳作
A raisin' me a family and workin' on a farm
每天都充满了简单的乡村魅力
My days are all filled with an easy country charm
感谢上帝我是个乡村男孩
Thank God I'm a country boy
嗯，我拥有一个不错的妻子，拥有一把旧提琴
Well, I got me a fine wife, I got me old fiddle
太阳升起时我在锅上烤着蛋糕
When the sun's comin' up I got cakes on the griddle
生活并不枯燥无聊，而是一个十分有趣的谜
Life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle
感谢上帝我是个乡村男孩
Thank God I'm A country boy
当所有的工作已经完成，太阳西沉
When the work's all done and the sun's settin' low
我取出我的提琴并调好了弦
I pull out my fiddle and I rosin' up the bow
孩子们已睡熟了，所以我悄声演奏
The kids are asleep so I keep it kinda low
感谢上帝我是个乡村男孩
Thank God I'm a country boy
如果可以，我会整天拉着 Sally Goodin'
I'd play "Sally Goodin'" all day if I could
但主和我的妻子不会因此高兴
But the Lord and my wife wouldn't take it very good
所以空闲时便拉起我的琴，工作时便认真劳作
So I fiddle when I can, work when I should
感谢上帝我是个乡村男孩
Thank God, I'm a country boy
嗯，我拥有一个不错的妻子，拥有一把旧提琴
Well, I got me a fine wife, I got me old fiddle
太阳升起时我在锅上烤着蛋糕
When the sun's comin' up I got cakes on the griddle

Life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle
感谢上帝我是个乡村男孩
Thank God I'm A country boy
嗯，我绝不用钻石珠宝交易我的生活
Well I wouldn't trade my life for diamonds or jewels
我绝不是贪财的傻瓜
I never was one of them money hungry fools
我宁可只要我的提琴和农具
I'd rather have my fiddle and my farmin' tools
感谢上帝我是个乡村男孩
Thank God I'm a country boy
噢，城里人坐在黑色豪车里
Yeah, city folk drivin' in a black limousine
可怜的人们觉得那很酷
A lotta sad people thinkin' that's a mighty keen
孩子，让我告诉你我真实的想法
Son, let me tell ya now exactly what I mean
我只感谢上帝我是个乡村男孩
I thank God I'm a country boy
嗯，我拥有一个不错的妻子，拥有一把旧提琴
Well, I got me a fine wife, I got me old fiddle

Life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle
感谢上帝我是个乡村男孩
Thank God I'm a country boy
嗯，我的提琴是我父亲去世后传给我的
Well, my fiddle was my daddy's til the day he died
他紧握着我的手，紧靠着我
And he took me by the hand and held me close to his side
他说：“好好生活下去，自豪地拉着我的提琴，
He said... "Live a good life and play my fiddle with pride
并且感谢上帝你是个乡村男孩。”
Thank God you're a country boy"
我的父亲教会了我如何打猎，如何用刀
My daddy taught me young how to hunt and how to whittle
教会了我如何工作，如何弹奏
He taught me how to work and play a tune on the fiddle
教会了我如何去爱，如何给予
He taught me how to love and how to give just a little
感谢上帝我是个乡村男孩
And thank God I'm a country boy
