I'm proud of where I came from
We'll go fishing
No matter where I go
You get a line, I get a pole
One thing I know
I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks
(Five card poker on Saturday night)
(You get a line, I get a pole)
Down in the boondocks
I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks
And knowing where I stand
You can take it or leave it
I was born and raised in the boondocks
(We'll go fishing in the crawfish hole)
When it grows wild
And I can hear that lullaby of a midnight train
(We'll go fishing in the crawfish hole)
Down in the boondocks
It's where I learned about Jesus
And having a little was just enough
(You get a line, I get a pole)
You get a line, I get a pole
I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks
We'll go fishing
On the banks down at old camp creek
That honeysuckle and it's still so sweet
And that's home to me
I was born and raised in the boondocks
It's where I learned about love
No matter where I go
And I can feel
I'm proud of where I came from
No matter where I go
It feels like home to me
(We'll go fishing in the crawfish hole)
You get a line, I get a pole
(Five card poker on Saturday night)
That muddy water running through my veins
And it sings to me and it sounds familiar
Five card poker on Saturday night
And I can taste
We'll go fishing in the crawfish hole
Give me a tin roof
We'll go fishing
(Five card poker on Saturday night)
A front porch and a gravel road
It's where I learned about living
I feel no shame
Yeah, and it calls to me like a warm wind blowing
Church on Sunday morning
Down in the boondocks
I'm proud of where I came from
This is me, this is who I am
No matter where I go
(Say a little prayer for me)
Church on Sunday morning
I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks
I feel no shame
I was born and raised in the boondocks
One thing I know
(You get a line, I get a pole)
One thing I know
I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks
I feel no shame
You get a line, I get a pole
Church on Sunday morning
It's where I learned about working hard
I was born and raised in the boondocks
Church on Sunday morning
One thing I know
(Say a little prayer for me)
