He was never voted "Most Likely to Succeed"
But still he married Tammy Bell, the prettiest girl in all of Knox County
And his uncle got him on at Thompson's Tool and Die
And now he;s a foreman and he's home each night by five
Not Bad for a farmer's son
Pretty good for where he comes from
He's got a house full of love and a yard full of kids
A car, a truck, a fishin' boat and a dozen best friends
And he ain't the richest man in Illinois
But not bad, not bad for a good ole boy
He got his picture in the paper right on the front page
He's smilin' with a nine-point buck he took on openin' day
Just last summer he bulit a deck on the house
And a fiew the family down to Florida to meet Mickey Mouse
Not Bad for a farmer's son
Pretty good for where he comes from
He's got a house full of love and a yard full of kids
A car, a truck, a fishin' boat and a dozen best friends
And he ain't the richest man in Illinois
But not bad, not bad for a good ole boy
Well he's a little league coach and a junior college grad
A volunter fireman and a full-time dad
Not Bad for a farmer's son
Pretty good for where he comes from
He's got a house full of love and a yard full of kids
A car, a truck, a fishin' boat and a dozen best friends
And he ain't the richest man in Illinois
But not bad, not bad for a good ole boy
Перевод
Его никогда не признавали "С наибольшей вероятностью на успех"
Но тем не менее он женился на Тэмми Белл, самой красивой девушке во всем округе Нокс
И его дядя устроил его в Thompson's Tool and Die
А теперь он бригадир и каждый вечер приходит домой к пяти
Неплохо для сына фермера
Неплохо для того места, откуда он родом
У него дом, полный любви, и двор, полный детей
Машина, грузовик, рыбацкая лодка и дюжина лучших друзей
И он не самый богатый человек в Иллинойсе
Но неплохо, неплохо для старого доброго мальчика
Его фотография была в газете прямо на первой полосе
Он улыбается с девятибалльной монетой, которую взял на вернисаже
Прошлым летом он построил террасу в доме
И несколько семья приехала во Флориду, чтобы встретиться с Микки Маусом
Неплохо для сына фермера
Неплохо для того места, откуда он родом
У него дом, полный любви, и двор, полный детей
А машина, грузовик, рыбацкая лодка и дюжина лучших друзей
И он не самый богатый человек в Иллинойсе
Но неплохо, неплохо для старого доброго мальчика
Ну, он тренер маленькой лиги и выпускник колледжа
Пожарный-волонтер и постоянный отец
Неплохо для сына фермера
Неплохо для того места, откуда он родом
У него полный дом любви и двор, полный детей
Машина, грузовик, рыбацкая лодка и дюжина лучших друзей
И он не самый богатый человек в Иллинойсе
Но неплохо, неплохо для молодец, мальчик
