Ev'ry night I watch the lights from the house upon the hill |
| [00:37.36] |
|
| [00:38.43] |
I love a little girl who lives up there and I guess I always will |
| [00:42.99] |
|
| [00:43.98] |
But I don't dare knock upon her door 'cause her daddy is my boss man |
| [00:49.38] |
So I got to try to be content to see her whenever I can goin' |
| [00:54.85] |
Down in the boondocks down in the boondocks |
| [00:59.10] |
|
| [01:00.19] |
People put me down 'cause that's the side of town I was born in |
| [01:04.73] |
|
| [01:05.77] |
I love her she loves me but I don't fit in her society |
| [01:11.26] |
Lord have mercy on a boy from down in the boondocks |
| [01:15.10] |
|
| [01:22.50] |
But I need money honey give me money honey |
| [01:26.09] |

|
| [02:05.98] |
Lord have mercy on a boy from down in the boondocks |
| [02:09.46] |
|
| [02:17.36] |
One fine day I'll find a way to move from this old shack |
| [02:21.40] |
|
| [02:22.43] |
I'll hold my head up like a king and I never will look back |
| [02:26.70] |
|
| [02:27.59] |
Until that day I'll work and slave and I'll save every dime |
| [02:32.12] |
|
| [02:32.97] |
But tonight she'll have to steal away to see me one more time |
| [02:38.11] |
