Boondocks

I feel no shame, I'm proud from where I came

I was born and raised in the boondocks, yeah

One thing I know, no matter where I go

Keep my heart and soul down in the boondocks, that's right

And I can feel that muddy water

Running through my vein, yeah

I can hear that lullaby of a midnight train

And it sings to me and sounds so familiar, whoa

I feel no shame out here, where I came

I was born and raised in the boondocks, yeah, yeah, yeah

One thing I know, no matter where I may go

I was born and raised down in boondocks

I can taste that honeysuckle

And it's still so sweet, yeah, it's so sweet, so sweet

When it grows wild on the banks down at old camp creek

And it calls to me like a warm wind blowing

I feel no shame from where I came

I was born and raised in the boondocks, yeah, yeah, yeah

One thing I know, no matter where I might go

I have my heart and soul in the boondocks

Now listen

It's where I learned about living, whoa yeah

Where I learned about love, alright

It's where I learned about working hard, uh huh

And having a little was just enough

It's where I learned about Jesus, oh yeah

And knowing where I stand, uh huh

You can take it or leave it

This is me, this is who I am

Feel no shame I'm proud from where I came

I was born down in the boondock, yeah

One thing I know, no matter where I go

Got my heart and soul in the boondocks

Give me a tin roof

A front porch and a gravel, a gravel road

And that's home to me

Feels like home to me, yeah, now

You get a line, I'll get a pole, yeah

We'll go fishing in the craw fish hole

Five-card poker on a Saturday night

Church on Sunday morning, yeah, yeah

I was born and raised

Down in the boondocks

One thing I know, no matter where I may go

My heart and soul in the boondocks

I feel no shame, I'm proud from where I came

I was born and raised in the boondocks, yeah

One thing I know, no matter where I go

I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks

In the boondocks
