Lyrics Harry Belafonte

Harry Belafonte

I'm Just a Country Boy

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
