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 can feel that

muddy water running through my veins.

And I can hear that

lullaby of the midnight train,

and 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.

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.

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 crawfish hole.

Five card poker on Saturday night,

church on Sunday morning.
