Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

I was born on a farm where my mom milked the cattle,

A jug full of corn was my first baby rattle,

I could ride a tractor before I could ride a bike,

Verse 2

My very first date took me to the theatre,

That boy's biggest dream was to grow the best 'tater,

But I wanted to be much more than a farm hand's wife,

Bridge

So I packed up my bags and I headed for the water,

They all waved goodbye to their little farmer's daughter,

I was setting sail for the best time of my life,

Chorus

Now I'm picking apples at the Sistine Chapel,

Bailing hay on the Champs-Élysées,

I'm a country girl in every country of the world,

Now I'm shucking corn where Shakespeare was born,

And I'm eating grits at the great Pyramids,

I'm a country girl in every country of the world,

I'm just a country girl in every country of...

The world.
