Down

People

of
town
I
wan
born
in
I
love
her
she
loves
me
But
I
don't
fit
in
her
society
Lord
have
mercy
on
the
boy
From
down
in
the
boondocks
Every
night
I
watch
the
lights
From
the
house
up
on
the
hill
I
love
a
little
girl
that
lives
up
there
And
I
guess
I
always
will
But
I
don't
dare
knock
on
her
door
Cause
her
daddy
is
my
boss
man
So
I'll
just
have
to
be
content
To
see
her
whenever
I
can

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