| Down in the boondocks, down in the boondocks
|
| People put me down cause that’s the side of town I was born in
|
| I love her and she loves me but I don’t fit in her society
|
| Lord have mercy, I’m a boy from down in the boondocks
|
| Every night I watch the lights from the house upon the hill
|
| I love a little girl who lives up there and I guess I always will
|
| But I don’t dare knock on her door cause her daddy is my boss man
|
| So I’ll just have to be content and see her whenever I can
|
| Down in the boondocks, down in the boondocks
|
| People put me down cause that’s the side of town I was born in
|
| I love her and she loves me but I don’t fit in her society
|
| Lord have mercy, I’m a boy from down in the boondocks
|
| Down in the boondocks, down in the boondocks
|
| One fine day, I’ll find a way and move from this old shack
|
| I’ll hold my head up like a king and I’ll never, never will look back
|
| Until that morning I’ll work and slave and I’ll save every dime
|
| But tonight she’ll have to steal away to see me one more time
|
| Down in the boondocks, down in the boondocks
|
| People put me down cause that’s the side of town I was born in
|
| I love her and she loves me but I don’t fit in her society
|
| Lord have mercy, I’m a boy from down in the boondocks
|
| Lord have mercy, I’m a boy from down in the boondocks
|
| Lord have mercy, I’m a boy from down in the boondocks |
