Lyrics

[Intro] It's no surprise where most vegetables come from Lou's vegetable stand? Most vegetables, pa Most vegetables come from the country, Larry That's right, Bob From down on the farm Off a dirt road in the boondocks [Chorus] I feel no shame, I'm proud of where I came from I was born and raised in the boondocks (Me too) One thing I know, no matter where I go I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks (Right there with you, brother) [Verse 1] I can feel that Muddy water running through my veins (That's not good) I can hear that Lullaby of the midnight train And it sings to me and it sounds familiar [Chorus] I feel no shame, I'm proud of where I came from I was born and raised in the boondocks (Oh-ho, mais oui!) One thing I know, no matter where I go I'll keep my heart and soul in the boondocks [Verse 2] I can taste that Honeysuckle and it's still so sweet, so sweet When it grows wild On the banks down at old Camp Creek Oh, and it calls to me like a warm wind blowing [Chorus] I feel no shame, I'm proud of where I came from I was born and raised in the boondocks (Oh, yeah) One thing I know, no matter where I go I keep my heart and soul in the boondocks [Bridge] 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 [Interlude] I can see you're all very proud of your heritage, I respect that Come on, pa, let's go noodlin' (Is that Italian?) [Bridge] Give me a tin roof, a front porch and a gravel road And that's home to me, feels like home to me [Interlude] It's actually where go fishin' for catfish without usin' a fishin' pole Well, what do you use? Your bare hands Think about that for a second Oh, yeah, well, then let's go muddin' This just keeps gettin' weirder [Refrain] 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 [Interlude] Haha, étouffée (Gimme some gumbo!) [Outro] You get a line, I'll get a pole We'll go fishing in the crawfish hole Take my bath on a Saturday night Church on Sunday morning You get a line, I'll get a pole (You get a line, I'll get a pole) We'll go fishing (We'll go fishing in the crawfish hole) Down in the boondocks (Take my bath on a Saturday night) Church on Sunday morning You get a line, I'll get a pole (You get a line, I'll get a pole) We'll go fishing (We'll go fishing in the crawfish hole) Down in the boondocks (Take my bath on a Saturday night) (Say a little prayer for me) Church on Sunday morning You get a line, I'll get a pole (You get a line, I'll get a pole) We'll go fishing (We'll go fishing in the crawfish hole) Down in the boondocks (Take my bath on a Saturday night) (Say a little prayer for me) Church on Sunday morning Where's a guy gotta go around here to get a good pastrami sandwich?
