Down In The Boondocks Lyrics - Lynn Anderson

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 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 light from the house up on the hill 

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

But I don't dare knock on his door cause his folks won't let me in 

So I'll just have to be content to see him whenever 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 ever will look back 

But till that morning when we can walk together hand in hand 

But I'll just have to be content to see him wherever I can 

Down in the boondocks... 

Lord have mercy on the girl from down in the boondocks
