Dumb Ol' Country Boy

I do not know who wrote this poem.

I'm just a dumb old country boy,
That ain't so very smart:
And when I talk I get mixed up,
My gears are hard to start:
It seems I don't have many brains,
Like other folks I know,
And when it comes to society,
My dumbness there I show.
I found it don't take many brains,
The best in life to gain:
It's not your wealth
Or what you are,
Prestige you might obtain:
It only takes just simple faith,
Eternal life to find;
No matter who or where you stand,
There's grace for all mankind.
I went down to the jailhouse once,
To witness for the Lord:
I told them how the Lord saved me,
They sure looked mighty bored:
They nudged each other
And they smiled,
They all knew I was dumb:
But they stayed in and I walked out,
When leavin' time had come.
I'm still a dumb old country boy,
I hope I'll always be:
Just dumb enough to trust the Lord,
For all eternity:
And so I'll just keep travelin' on
With Jesus in my heart;
I'm just a dumb old country boy,
That ain't so very smart.
