Every night I watch the lights
From the house upon the hill
I love a little boy who lives up there
And I guess I always will
But I don't dare knock upon his door,
'Cause his daddy is my boss man
So I got to try to be content,
To see his whenever I can

Chorus:
Down in the boondocks,
down in the boondocks
People put me down,
'cause that's the side of town I was born in
I love him, he loves me,
but I don't fit in his society
Lord have mercy
On a girl from down in the boondocks

One fine day I'll find a way
To move from this old shack
I'll hold my head up like a queen
And I never will look back
Until that day I'll work and slave,
And I'll save every dime
But tonight he'll have to steal away
To see me one more time,

Repeat Chorus 2x
