Down In The Boondocks Lyrics - Nightwatch - Kenny Loggins

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 and she loves me 

But I don't fit her society 

Lord have mercy on a boy from down in the boondocks 

Every night I will 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 

Her daddy is my boss man 

So I'll just have to be content 

To see her whenever I can

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 and she loves me 

But I don't fit her society 

Lord have mercy, on a boy from down in the boondocks (harmony) 

Down in the boondocks, down in the boondocks 

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 morning 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 

Down in the boondocks 

Down in the boondocks 

People put me down 'cause that's the side of town I was born in

Lord have mercy on a boy from down in the boondocks
