TWO FOR TUESDAY


Not every song that will be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian” in the eyes of this world. For some will be anguished cries from the pit of despair, and others will be quite obviously ferverent rants of rebellion. Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (in one way or another) and I hope that you have been given ears to hear the message.

***NOTE***
Do not click-on where it says to click if you think she’s hot unless you do not mind being redirected to another completely unrelated site. Sorry, this is the best video for Boondocks I could find due to the powers that be in the country music recording industry fierce determination to not let much of anything go for free. Yeah, it really irritates me.


Boondocks
Little Big Town
I feel no shame
I’m proud of where I came from
I was born and raised
In the boondocks
One thing I know
No matter where I go
I keep my heart and soul
In the boondocks

And I can feel that
Muddy water runnin’ through my veins
And I can hear that
Lullaby of a midnight train
And it sings to me
And it sounds familiar

I feel no shame
I’m proud of where I came from
I was born and raised
In the boondocks
One thing I know
No matter where I go
I keep my heart and soul
In the boondocks

And I can taste that
Honeysuckle and it’s still so sweet
When it grows wild
On the bands down at old camp creek
Yeah
And it calls to me like a warm wind blowin’

I feel no shame
I’m proud of where I came from
I was born and raised
In the boondocks
One thing I know
No matter where I go
I keep my heart and soul
In the boondocks

It’s where I learned about livin’
It’s where I learned about love
It’s where I learned about workin’ hard
And havin’ a little was just enough
It’s where I learned about Jesus
And knowin’ where I stand
You can take it or leave it
This is me
This is who I am

Give me a tin roof
A front porch and a gravel road
And that’s home to me
It feels like home to me

I feel no shame
I’m proud of where I came from
I was born and raised
In the boondocks
One thing I know
No matter where I go
I keep my heart and soul
In the boondocks
I keep my heart and soul
In the boondocks

You get a line
I get a pole
We’ll go fishin’ in the crawfish hole
Five card poker on Saturday night
Church on Sunday mornin’

You get a line
You get a line
I get a pole
I get a pole
We’ll go fishin’
We’ll go fishin’ in the crawfish hole
Down in the boondocks
Five card poker on Saturday night
Church on Sunday mornin’

You get a line
You get a line
I get a pole
I get a pole
We’ll go fishin’
We’ll go fishin’ in the crawfish hole
Down in the boondocks
Five card poker on Saturday night
Say a little prayer for me
Church on Sunday mornin’

You get a line
You get a line
I get a pole
I get a pole
We’ll go fishin’
We’ll go fishin’ in the crawfish hole
Down in the boondocks
Five card poker on Saturday night
Say a little prayer for me
Church on Sunday mornin’

***WARNING***
Some may find the imagery of the following video quite disturbing. So, be prepared to close your eyes and ears at any moment, but please keep your heart and mind open.


Bones
Little Big Town
What goes
Around
Comes around
Feel it breathin’ down
Heavy on you
You made
That bed you’re layin’ on
Deeds that you have done
Now you can’t undo

You’ve got bones in your closet
You’ve got ghosts in your town
Ain’t no doubt
Yeah they’re gonna come out
They’re waitin’ for the sun to go down
You can’t hide from your demons
Feel ‘em all lurkin’ around
You’re runnin’ scared
‘Cause you know they’re out there
They’re waitin’ for the sun to go down

It’s a long
And hard
Row to hoe
When seeds that you sow
Grow by the wicked moon
Be sure
Your sins
Will find you out
Your past will hunt you down
And return to tell on you

You’ve got bones in your closet
You’ve got ghosts in your town
Ain’t no doubt
Yeah they’re gonna come out
They’re waitin’ for the sun to go down
You can’t hide from your demons
Feel ‘em all lurkin’ around
You’re runnin’ scared
‘Cause you know they’re out there
They’re waitin’ for the sun to go down

It all stands to reason
Every dog will have his day
But your day is leavin’
Better hold on tight
It comes around

You’ve got bones in your closet
You’ve got ghosts in your town
Ain’t no doubt
Yeah they’re gonna come out
They’re waitin’ for the sun to go down
Waitin’ for the sun to go down
You can’t hide from your demons
Feel ‘em all lurkin’ around
They got you runnin’
You’re runnin’ scared
‘Cause you know they’re out there
They’re waitin’ for the sun to go down
They’re waitin’
For the sun to go down

What goes
Around
Comes around
Feel it breathin’ down
Heavy on you

  3. When I saw boondocks I was thinking of another song. Don't believe I've ever heard either of these before.

  4. Okay - country - now you're talking. The girl with the dark hair - don't know her name - grew up within five miles of us.

    Love them.

  5. Thanks for stopping by again, my dear BadGal!!! Hey, I imagine you would have hillbilly homeboys and homegirls coming out of the woodwork if you would add these two to the playlist for a segment or two of BadGals Radio.

  6. Thanks for stopping by again, my dear Nezzy!!! Yeah, I've heard that there are quite a few boogers around Mountain Grove, but it is still fairly sophisticated in comparison to the Cassville area.

  7. Thanks for stopping by again, my dear Ann!!! I imagine you were thinking of Billy Joe Royal's "Down In The Boondocks," which was a big hit for him back in the 60's (I think). Kenny Loggins also had a fair amount of success with a remake of the song some years later.

  8. Thanks for stopping by again, my dear Sandie!!! If you must know, yes, I did click-on that thingy because I do think she is hot. It's pretty cool that you were neighbors.
