Down in the Boondocks Lyrics

INTRO: A ///
CHORUS:
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, she loves me, but I don't fit in her society..
Lord have mercy on the boy from down in the boondocks.
#1.
Every night I watch the lights from the house up on the hill.
I love a little girl that lives up there, I guess I always will.
But I don't dare knock on her door..her daddy is my boss man.
So I'll just have to be content, to see her when ever I can.
CHORUS:
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, she loves me, but I don't fit in her society..
Lord have mercy on the boy from down in the boondocks.
(INTERLUDE:)
Down in the boondocks..down in the boondocks.
#2.
One fine day I'll find a way to move from this old shack.
I'll hold my head up like a king and I 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.
CHORUS:
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, she loves me, but I don't fit in her society..
Lord have mercy on the boy from down in the boondocks.
OUTRO:
Lord have mercy on the boy from down in the boondocks.
Lord have mercy on the boy from down in the boondocks.
