The Richest Man (In the World) |
| One, two, three, four |
| One, two, three, four |
| (CHORUS) |
| I got a humpack mule |
| A plow, and a tater patch |
| Eggs that are gonna hatch someday |
| I got my Lord above and |
| A good girl to love me |
| I’m the richest man in the world |
| Thank you, thank you, Lord above |
| For smiling down on me |
| I’m richer now than any man |
| Has any right to be Health and love and happiness |
| Have been my cup of tea |
| The richest man in all creation |
| Surely, it is me |
| (CHORUS) |
| I’ve got water in my well |
| And heaven in my heart |
| I have a perfect woman |
| I can trust when we’re apart |
| Cash enough to see a show |
| And eat out now and then |
| A roof, a bed, a fishing pole |
| And folks who call me friend |
| (CHORUS) |
| I don’t have bank account |
| My cash on hand is small |
| But tell me, what are riches |
| But contentment after all |
| Other folks may think I’m poor |
| But I know it’s not so Cause when I count my blessings |
| I’m the richest man I know |
| (CHORUS) |
| Now the rich folks talk |
| About the grub they eat |
| Now I’ve got all those |
| Rich folks beat |
| Cause I’ve got a Field of yellow yams |
| And a smokehouse filled |
| With country hams |
| Talk to me about caviar |
| They ain’t nothing but |
| Fish eggs packed in a jar |
| I got a whole pond |
| Of big, round trout |
| Fish eggs, what are |
| They talking about |
| I got no fancy swimming pool |
| But the creek in the woods |
| Is deep and cool |
| I’m a lucky man |
| I’m a lucky fool |
| I’m wealthy, I’m wealthy |
| (CHORUS) 2X |
