I stumbled an a preacher Sunday mornin' all 
decked out and made up for t.v. askin for 
some money from God's people talkin' all that
high theology

Well i might be just an old blue collar there's things 
about the Lord that i dont know but i bet he never
had a million dollars or wore a lot of stylish fancy clothes.

Chorus:
Cuz Jesus was a country boy walkin' down a dirt road
with everything that he owned he never met a stanger
born in a barn underneath the stars his momma laid
him in a manger swimmin in the river fishin' for his 
dinner livin' with the sinners like me makes me think
that Jesus was a country boy

My daddy never cared much for religion and my 
momma worried a lot about his soul she'd hit 
her knees and pray for him on Sunday while daddy
hit his favorite fishin' hole and daddy knew

chorus
