Verse:
E
Pick a little cotton, and put it in the wagon
E                      B7
Take it to the gin and then
B7
Get yourself some money, and take out your honey
    B7              E
And do it all over again
    E
Oh, that's a life of a country boy
   E                 A
He works from sun to sun
A                        E
He's just a hard workin' country lad
           B7             E
But he's a happy son of a gun.

Chorus:
            E
He's just a hard workin' country boy out on the farm
E                    B7
Workin' from dawn to dusk
  B7
A pickin' the cotton, A plowin' the fields
    B7                  E
And doin' the things he must
       E
But on Saturday he'll head for town
   E                     A
To have himself a little fun
              A                        E
And when he's stompin' on a honky tonk hardwood floor
       B7             E
He's a happy son of a gun.


Instrumental:
E       B7     E   A   E   B7   E

Verse:
            E
Well, a country boy's got a wearied back
E                         B7
Cause workin' is all he's known
   B7
He ain't got much just a blackland farm
         B7                   E
But that blackland farm's his own
   E
He don't have to answer to any man
  E                A
And worries has he none
             A                   E
And you can tell by lookin' this country boy's
       B7             E
Just a happy son of a gun.

Chorus:
            E
He's just a hard workin' country boy out on the farm
E                      B7
Workin' from dawn to dusk
B7
A pickin' the cotton, A plowin' the fields
    B7              E
And doin' the things he must
       E
But on Saturday he'll head for town
   E                     A
To have himself a little fun
              A                        E
And when he's stompin' on a honky tonk hardwood floor
       B7             E
He's a happy son of a gun.

Outro:
               A                        E
Now, when he's stompin' on a honky tonk hardwood floor
       B7             E
He's a happy son of a gun
