OUT HERE IN THE BOONDOCKS (c) 2016


OUT IN THE BOONDOCKS

V1

I Live way out here in the Bayou
In this small Lousiana Town.
Not much to do here
than drive this ole
74 Chevy Pick Up Around

There really isn't much here.
except drink down a few buds
at the local honky tonk.
Yeah grillin' catfish
listenin to Kenny
never thinking much
about the time-clock.

Chorus:

YES -
Out here in boondocks
where the crayfish  and gators swim.
Out here where the only neighbor
for miles around is that
backwoods survivalist named JIm.
Where going INto the big city
might seem like a sin.

Where the fireflies glow all summer long.
Where the country music blasts
through that boggy bayou  fog.
Where the skeeters are the size of
BIG OLE BAYOU bullfrogs

Yeah
It may be twenty miles to the nearest grocery store.
but I wouldn't give any of this up.
A place where we don't have to worry
about the ticking' clock.
thats how life is
out here
in the boon docks.

V2

Some like the hustle and bustle of New York.
But for me I like the sound of the banjo
AND WOODPECKERS AT WORK.
With my kids in the woods
ROASTING MARSHMALLOWS OVER
A BONFIRE SPENDING THE
WEEKEND building
a tree fort.

Where it doesn't matter
what kind of car you drive.
All that matters is how
you live your life.
That you provide for your kids.
That you love your wife.
That you be good to your friends.
and that you enjoy your life.

Oh-
It may be twenty miles to the nearest grocery store.
but I wouldn't give any of this up.
A place where we don't have to worry
about the ticking' clock.
thats how life is out here
in the boon docks.

Bridge:

Where the fireflies glow all summer long.
Where the country music blasts
through that boggy swamp fog.
Where the skeeters are the size of
bullfrogs
Where a good place for a picnic
is sitting on an old fallen log.
No I don't think I could ever
give this up.
Living out here in the
Living out here in the
Living out here
in the
boon docks.

Livin out here in the
Livin out here in the
Lovin life out here in
the
Boon docks.


*((( END TAG)))*

So if you're thinking of coming down here.
Make sure you have a good heart.
That's how we roll out here in the
That's how we live life out here in the
that's how we do it out here in the
boon docks.
