Lyrics
I got a crib full of corn and a turning plow
But the ground's too wet for the hopper now
Got a cultivator and a double tree
A leather line for the haw and jean
Let the thunder roll and the lightnin' flash
I'm doin' alright for country trash
I'm savin' up dimes for a rainy day
I got about a dollar laid away
The winds from the south and the fishin's good
Got a pot belly stove and a cord of wood
Momma turns the leftovers into hash
I'm doin' alright for country trash
I got a Mackinaw and a huntin' dog
A cap that I ordered from the catalog
A big tall tree that shades the yard
A bit fat sow for the winter's lard
Let the thunder roll and the lightnin' flash
I'm doin' alright for country trash
Well there's not much new ground left to plow
And crops need fertilizin' now
My hands don't earn me too much gold
For security when I grow old
But we'll all be equal under the grass
And God's got a heaven for country trash
God's got a heaven for country trash
I'll be doin' alright for country trash
