(I've got silver in the stars, and gold in the morning sun)

I ain't gonna marry in the Fall
I ain't gonna marry in the Spring
Oh for I'm in love with a pretty little girl
Who wears a diamond ring
Oh and I'm just a country boy
Money have I none
Oh but I've got silver in the stars
And gold in the morning sun
I've got gold in the morning sun

I'm never gonna kiss the ruby lips
Of the prettiest girl in town
No I'm never gonna have her if she'd marry me
For I know she'd turn me down
'Cause I'm just a country boy
Money, money have I none
Oh but I've got that silver in the stars
And gold in the morning sun
I have gold in the morning sun
(Just a country boy)
