I feel no shame I'm proud of where I came from I was born and raised in the boondocks One thing I know No matter where I go I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks And I can feel That muddy water running through my veins And I can hear that lullaby of a midnight train It sings to me and it sounds familiar I feel no shame I'm proud of where I came from I was born and raised in the boondocks One thing I know No matter where I go I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks And I can taste That honeysuckle and it's still so sweet When it grows wild On the banks down at old camp creek Yeah, and it calls to me like a warm wind blowing I feel no shame I'm proud of where I came from I was born and raised in the boondocks One thing I know No matter where I go I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks It's where I learned about living It's where I learned about love It's where I learned about working hard And having a little was just enough It's where I learned about Jesus And knowing where I stand You can take it or leave it, this is me This is who I am Give me a tin roof A front porch and a gravel road And that's home to me It feels like home to me I feel no shame I'm proud of where I came from I was born and raised in the boondocks One thing I know No matter where I go I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks You get a line, I'll get a pole We'll go fishing in the craw fish hole Five-card poker on a Saturday night Church on Sunday morning You get a line, I'll get a pole We'll go fishing in the craw fish hole (Down in the boondocks) Five-card poker on a Saturday night Church on Sunday morning You get a line, I'll get a pole We'll go fishing in the craw fish hole (Down in the boondocks) Five-card poker on a Saturday night Church on Sunday morning Say a little prayer for me
