 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

 Oh, uh, oh
 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

 Never gonna kiss those ruby red lips
 Of the prettiest girl in town
 Never gonna ask her if she'd marry me
 'cause I know she'd turn me down

 'cau-au-au-use
 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

 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

 'cau-au-au-au-au-ause
 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 .all in the morning sun
