Learn to Speak English Faster!

Learn to Speak English Faster!

When I studied French, I learned a lot from French songs. One time, I tried to learn a very fast song. It was very difficult, but I repeated it so many times that finally I could follow it. A funny thing happened then - my speaking in French became faster! I was more fluent because I learned to sing a fast song!

Here is a very fast English song. Don’t worry about the meaning of every word, just try to follow it. If it’s too long, just learn the first three parts. If you can follow those, you can follow the rest of the song which is very similar. Remember, have fun and enjoy, then you will surely succeed!

Well life on the farm is kinda laid back
Ain’t much an old country boy like me can’t hack
It’s early to rise, early in the sack
Thank God I’m a country boy

Well a simple kinda life never did me no harm
A raisin’ me a family and workin’ on a farm
My days are all filled with an easy country charm
Thank God I’m a country boy

Well I got me a fine wife I got me ol’ fiddle
When the sun’s comin’ up I got cakes on the griddle
Life ain’t nothin’ but a funny funny riddle
Thank God I’m a country boy

When the works all done and the sun’s settin low
I pull out my fiddle and I rosen up the bow
The kids are asleep so I keep it kinda low
Thank God I’m a country boy

I’d play us all a good’un all day if I could
But the lord and my wife wouldn’t take it very good
So I fiddle when I can, work when I should
Thank God I’m a country boy

Well I got me a fine wife I got me ol’ fiddle
When the sun’s comin’ up I got cakes on the griddle
Life ain’t nothin’ but a funny funny riddle
Thank God I’m a country boy

Well I wouldn’t trade my life for diamonds or jewels
I never was one of them money hungry fools
I’d rather have my fiddle and my farmin’ tools
Thank God I’m a country boy

Yeah, city folk drivin’ in a black limousine
A lotta sad people thinkin’ that’s mighty keen
Son, let me tell ya now exactly what I mean
Thank God I’m a country boy

When the sun’s comin’ up I got cakes on the griddle
Life ain’t nothin’ but a funny funny riddle
Thank God I’m a country boy

Well, my fiddle was my daddy’s till the day he died
And he took me by the hand and held me close to his side
Said, live a good life and play my fiddle with pride
And thank God you’re a country boy

Well, my daddy taught me young how to hunt and how to whittle
Taught me how to work and play a tune on the fiddle
Taught me how to love and how to give just a little
Thank God I’m a country boy

Well I got me a fine wife I got me ol’ fiddle
When the sun’s comin’ up I got cakes on the griddle
Life ain’t nothin’ but a funny funny riddle
Thank God I’m a country boy, yes I am!
