Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Hey, country boy

Hey, country boy

What are you sad about?

Everyday you made the sun come out

Even in the pouring rain

I'll come to see you

And I'll save you, I'll save you

[Verse 2]

What do you care about?

And she says, this and that

What do I mean to you?

I'll show you, if you want the truth

I can't remember

I don't know how to tell you

But I love you just the same

[Verse 3]

How many eyes must a young girl have?

I know she makes you cry

I know she makes you laugh

I'll be good to you, if I could I'd make you happy

And if I had a son I'd be good to my daddy

Who loves you, though I best it's not the same

As your north country boy

[Verse 4]

Hey, country boy

What are you sad about?

I think we'll work it out

Even in the morning rain

He'll come to see you

Hope your feelings are the same

[Verse 5]

How many ears must a young girl have?

I know she hears you cry

I know she hears you laugh

Itchy and Scratchy come running up the alley

And if you'll be good I'll be good to your daddy

Who loves you, though I best it's not the same

As your north country boy

[Verse 6]

What do you care about?

And she says, this and that

What do I mean to you?

I'll show you, if you want the truth

I threw it all away

Don't know where I put it

But I miss it all the same

[Verse 7]

How many eyes must a young girl have?

I know she makes you cry

I know she makes you laugh

I'll be good to you, if I could I'd make you happy

If you'll be good I'll be good to your daddy

Who loves you, but I best it's not the same

As your north country boy
