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