Its a relatively new song a couple of months old I'd say. I heard it on day on my walk man and it reminded me of myself. I was crossing some train tracks and everything looked so far away. i don't know who sings it But the guy literally says Boondocks which i thought was funny cuz I haven't heard that since Goonies.

Little Big Town's Boondocks. Here are the lyrics:



I feel no shame, I'm proud of where I came from:

I was born an' raised in the Boondocks.

One thing I know, no matter where I go,

I keep my heart an' soul in the Boondocks.



An' I can feel that,

Muddy water runnin' through my veins.

An' I can hear that lullaby of the midnight train.

An' it seems to me that it sounds familiar.



I feel no shame, I'm proud of where I came from:

I was born an' raised in the Boondocks.

One thing I know, no matter where I go,

I keep my heart an' soul in the Boondocks.



I can taste that honeysuckle,

An' it's still so sweet,

When it grows wild on the banks of an' old camp creek.

Yeah, an it calls to me like an warm wind blowin'.



I feel no shame, I'm proud of where I came from:

I was born an' raised in the Boondocks.

One thing I know, no matter where I go,

I keep my heart an' soul in the Boondocks.



It's where I learned about livin'.

It's where I learned about love.

It's where I learned about workin' hard,

An' havin' a little is just enough.

It's where I learned about Jesus,

An' knowin' where I stand.

You can take it or leave it,

This is me: this is who I am.



Instrumental Break.



Give me a tin-roof,

A front porch an' a gravel road.

An' that's home to me,

Feels like home to me.



I feel no shame, I'm proud of where I came from:

I was born an' raised in the Boondocks.

One thing I know, no matter where I go,

I keep my heart an' soul in the Boondocks.

I keep my heart an' soul in the Boondocks.



You get a line, I'll get a pole,

We'll go fishin' in the crawfish hole.

Five-card poker on Saturday night,

Church on Sunday mornin'.



You get a line, (You get a line.)

I'll get a pole, (I'll get a pole.)

We'll go fishin'. (We'll go fishin' in the crawfish hole.)

Down in the Boondocks, (Five-card poker on Saturday night,)

Church on Sunday mornin'.



You get a line, (You get a line.)

(You get a line an' I'll get a pole.)

I'll get a pole, (I'll get a pole.)

We'll go fishin'. (We'll go fishin' in the crawfish hole.)

Down in the Boondocks, (Five-card poker on Saturday night,)

(Say a little prayer for me.)

Church on Sunday mornin'.



You get a line, (You get a line.)

(You get a line an' I'll get a pole.)

I'll get a pole, (I'll get a pole.)

We'll go fishin'. (We'll go fishin' in the crawfish hole.)

Down in the Boondocks, (Five-card poker on Saturday night,)

(Say a little prayer for me.)

Church on Sunday mornin'.

Clearly you don't LIVE in the boondocks....we say it around here all the time! Remember Billy Joe Royal's "Down in the Boondocks"?
