Ain't gonna marry in the fall
Ain't gonna marry in the spring
For you're in love
With a pretty little girl
Who wears a diamond ring

[Chorus]
You're just a country boy
Money - have you none?
But you've got silver
In the stars
Gold in the morning sun
Gold in the morning sun

Never gonna kiss the ruby red lips
Of the prettiest girl in town
Never gonna ask her if she'll marry you
She'd only turn you down

[Chorus]

Never could afford a store-bought ring
With a sparklin' diamond stone
All you could afford is a loving heart
The only one you own

[Chorus]
