Little Big Town - Boondocks lyrics

rate me

(Chorus:)

I feel no shame

I'm proud of where I came from

I was born and raised in the boondocks

One thing I know

No matter where I go

I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks

And I can feel

That muddy water running through my veins

And I can hear that lullaby of a midnight train

It sings to me and it sounds familiar

(Chorus)

And I can taste

That honeysuckle and it's still so sweet

When it grows wild

On the banks down at old camp creek

Yeah, and it calls to me like a warm wind blowing

(Chorus)

It's where I learned about living

It's where I learned about love

It's where I learned about working hard

And having a little was just enough

It's where I learned about Jesus

And knowing where I stand

You can take it or leave it, this is me

This is who I am

Give me a tin roof

A front porch and a gravel road

And that's home to me

It feels like home to me

(Chorus)

I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks

You get a line, I'll get a pole

We'll go fishing in the crawfish hole

Five-card poker on a Saturday night

Church on Sunday morning

(2x)

You get a line, I'll get a pole

We'll go fishing in the crawfish hole

(Down in the boondocks)

Five-card poker on a Saturday night

Church on Sunday morning

Say a little prayer for me
