I ain't gonna marry in the fall And I ain't gonna marry in the spring For I'm in love with a pretty little girl Who wears a diamond ring
For.....I'm just a country boy Money have I none But I've got silver in the stars And gold in the morning sun And gold in the morning sun
I'm never gonna kiss those ruby red lips Of the prettiest girl in town I'm never gonna ask her if she'd marry me 'Cause I know she'd turn me down
'Cause.....I'm just a country boy Money, money have I none But I've got silver in the stars And gold in the morning sun And gold in the morning sun
I Never could afford a store-bought ring With a sparkling diamond stone All I could afford was a loving heart The only one I own
'Cause.....I'm just a country boy Money, money have I none But I've got silver, silver in the stars And gold in the morning sun And gold in the morning sun
