Lyrics
I feel no shame, I'm proud from where I came I was born and raised in the boondocks, yeah One thing I know, no matter where I go Keep my heart and soul down in the boondocks, that's right And I can feel that muddy water Running through my vein, yeah I can hear that lullaby of a midnight train And it sings to me and sounds so familiar, whoa I feel no shame out here, where I came I was born and raised in the boondocks, yeah, yeah, yeah One thing I know, no matter where I may go I was born and raised down in boondocks I can taste that honeysuckle And it's still so sweet, yeah, it's so sweet, so sweet When it grows wild on the banks down at old camp creek And it calls to me like a warm wind blowing I feel no shame from where I came I was born and raised in the boondocks, yeah, yeah, yeah One thing I know, no matter where I might go I have my heart and soul in the boondocks Now listen It's where I learned about living, whoa yeah Where I learned about love, alright It's where I learned about working hard, uh huh And having a little was just enough It's where I learned about Jesus, oh yeah And knowing where I stand, uh huh You can take it or leave it This is me, this is who I am Feel no shame I'm proud from where I came I was born down in the boondock, yeah One thing I know, no matter where I go Got my heart and soul in the boondocks Give me a tin roof A front porch and a gravel, a gravel road And that's home to me Feels like home to me, yeah, now You get a line, I'll get a pole, yeah We'll go fishing in the craw fish hole Five-card poker on a Saturday night Church on Sunday morning, yeah, yeah I was born and raised Down in the boondocks One thing I know, no matter where I may go My heart and soul in the boondocks I feel no shame, I'm proud from where I came I was born and raised in the boondocks, yeah One thing I know, no matter where I go I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks In the boondocks
