The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
(I've got silver in the stars
and gold in the morning sun)
I ain't gonna marry in the fall
I ain't gonna marry in the spring
oh, for I am love with a pretty little girl
who wears a diamond ring
and I am just a country boy
money have I none
oh but I've got silver in the stars
and gold in the morning sun
I have gold in the morning sun
I never gonna kiss the ruby lips
of the prettiest girl in town
oh I'm never gonna ask her if she'd marry me
'cause I know she'd turn me down
'cause I am just a country boy
money, money have I none
oh but I've got that silver in the stars
and gold in the morning sun
I have gold in the morning sun
