I ain't gonna marry in the fall,

Ain't gonna marry in the spring.

'Cos I'm in love with a pretty little girl,

Who wears a diamond ring.



And 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 the ruby red lips,

Of the prettiest girl in town.

I'm never gonna ask her if she'd marry me,

For I know she'd turn me down.





'Cos 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 never could afford a store bought ring,

With a sparkling diamond stone.

All I could afford is a loving heart,

The only one I own.



'Cos I'm just a country boy,

Money have I none.

But I've got silver in the stars,

And gold in the morning sun.

Gold in the morning sun.
