Down In The Boondocks lyrics

Down in the boondocks down in the boondocks

People lookin` down cause that`s the side of town I was born in

I love him he loves me but I don`t fit in his society

Lord have mercy on the girl from down in the boondocks



Every night I watch the lights from the house up on the hill

I love a boy who lives up there and I guess I always will

But I don`t dare go near his door cause jis folks won`t let me in

So I have to try to be content just to see him wherever I can

Down in the boondocks...



One find day I`ll find a way to move from this old shack

I`ll hold my head up like a queen and I never never will look back

Until that day I`ll save my love for a boy I`ll soon call mine

But tonight he`ll have to steal away to see me one more time

Down in the boondocks...

Lord have mercy on the girl from down in the boondocks
