billy joe royal - down in the boondocks (stay close to home version) lyrics
[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 a boy from down in the boondocks
[verse 1]
every night i watch the light from the house upon 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 ’cause her daddy is my boss man
so i’ll just have to be content to see her whenever i can
[chorus]
down in the boondocks, down in the boondocks
pеople put me down ’cause that’s thе 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 a boy from down in the boondocks
[bridge]
down in the boondocks, down in the boondocks
[verse 2]
one fine day i’ll find a way to move from this old shack
i’ll hold my head up like a king, i never, never will look back
until that mornin’ 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 a boy from down in the boondocks
lord, have mercy on a boy from down in the boondocks
lord, have mercy on a boy from down in the boondocks
