《Down in the Boondocks》歌词

[00:00:00] Down In The Boondocks - Ry Cooder

[00:00:14] Down in the boondocks,

[00:00:17] down in the boondocks

[00:00:21] People put me down

[00:00:22] 'cause that's the side of town I was born in

[00:00:27] I love her and she loves me

[00:00:31] But I don't fit in her society

[00:00:35] Lord have mercy,

[00:00:36] I'm a boy from down in the boondocks

[00:00:42] Now, every night I watch the lights

[00:00:45] from the house upon the hill

[00:00:49] Well, I love a little girl who lives up there

[00:00:52] and I guess I always will

[00:00:56] But I don't dare knock on her door

[00:00:59] 'Cause her daddy is my boss man

[00:01:03] So I'll just have to be content

[00:01:06] and see her whenever I can

[00:01:11] Take a trip on down in the boondocks,

[00:01:15] Take a ride on down in the boondocks

[00:01:19] People put me down

[00:01:21] 'cause that's the side of town I was born in

[00:01:26] See, I love her and she loves me

[00:01:29] But I don't fit her society

[00:01:33] Lord have mercy,

[00:01:35] I'm a boy from down in the boondocks

[00:01:53] One fine day I'll find a way

[00:01:56] and move from this old shack

[00:01:59] Well, I'll hold my head up like a king

[00:02:03] and I'll never, never will look back

[00:02:07] 'Til that morning I'll work and slave

[00:02:10] And I'll save every dime

[00:02:14] But tonight she'll have to steal away

[00:02:17] To see me one more time

[00:02:22] Get together, darling, down in the boondocks

[00:02:25] Making love, darling, down in the boondocks

[00:02:30] People put me down

[00:02:31] 'cause that's the side of town I was born in

[00:02:37] I love her and she loves me

[00:02:40] But I don't fit her society

[00:02:44] Lord have mercy,

[00:02:45] I'm a boy from down in the boondocks

[00:02:49] down in the boondocks

[00:02:54] down in the boondocks

[00:02:58] People put me down

[00:03:00] 'cause that's the side of town I was born in
