Kenny Loggins - Down In The Boondocks Lyrics
Evry night I watch the lights from the house upon the hillI love a little girl who lives up there and I guess I always willBut I dont dare knock upon her door, cause her daddy is my boss manSo I got to try to be content, to see her whenever I can, goinChorus:Down in the boondocks, down in the boondocksPeople put me down, cause thats the side of town I was born inI love her, she loves me, but I dont fit in her societyLord have mercy on a boy from down in the boondocksBut I need money, honey, give me money, honeyMoney, honey, (I need enough) money, honeyIll take it to the bank, Ill take it all down, just say it to me, oh manChorusOne fine day Ill find a way to move from this old shackIll hold my head up like a king and I never will look backUntil that day Ill work and slave, and Ill save every dimeBut tonight shell have to steal away to see me one more time, goinChorus repeats 2xLord have mercy on a boy from down in the boondocksMama have mercy on a boy from down in the - oohHave mercy baby, a little mercy, hang around all day, take meDown in the boondocks, da-da-down in the boondocks (repeats out)
