Home Free - Fishin' In The Dark / Down In The Boondocks Lyrics






I feel no shame
I'm proud of where I came from
I was born and raised in the Boondocks...

Lazy, yellow moon comin' up tonight
Shinin' through the trees
The crickets are singin'
And the lightnin' bugs are floatin' on the breeze

Baby get ready

Cross the field where the crick turns back
By the old stone road
I'm gonna take you to a special place
That nobody knows

Baby get ready, Ooooooo, Oh!

You and me goin' fishin' in the dark
Lyin' on our backs and countin' the stars
Where the cool grass grows
(I feel no shame in the Boondocks)
Down by the river in the full moon light
We'll be fallin' in love in the middle of the night
Just movin' slow (movin' slow, movin' slow)
Stayin' the whole night through (all night through)
Feels so good to be with you

I feel no shame
I'm proud of where I came from
I was born and raised in the Boondocks...
(raised up in the Boondocks)
One thing I know
No matter where I go
I keep my heart and soul in the Boondocks
(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 having 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

You and me goin' fishin' in the dark
Lyin' on our backs and countin' the stars
Where the cool grass grows
(Born and raised in the Boondocks)
Down by the river in the full moon light
We'll be fallin' in love in the middle of the night
Just movin' slow (movin' slow, movin' slow)

I feel no shame
I'm proud of where I came from
I was born and raised in the Boondocks...
(Born and raised in the Boondocks)
One thing I know
No matter where I go
I keep my heart and soul in the Boondocks
(Stayin' the whole night through)

Feels so good to be with you.

You get a line
I'll get a pole
We'll go fishin' in the crawfish hole
Five-card poker on a Saturday night
Church on Sunday morning. [x5]

I'll keep my heart and soul in the Boondocks.

    This gets stuck in my head ALL. THE. TIME. Someone help me. (JK could anything be better? Let me "suffer" in a capella land)

  2. A.... S....

    Everyones talking about the singing (rightfully so), but I think the video production was really well done.

  3. T.... R....

    Sounds like and is just as corny as Andy Bernard's accapella group...

  6. F.... J....

    that is cool

  7. S.... U....

    OMG Austin! Be still my heart with that hair flip *swoon* Amazing as always guys!

  8. V.... F....

    I have not enjoyed a group this much in a long time

  9. M.... B....

    listen to 3:08 with just the left earphone on

  10. C.... S....

    After hearing this I’d love to hear the songs both by doobie brothers mashed up listen to the music/ give me the beat boys

  11. J.... ....

    Bass line

  12. M.... B....

    2:26 i think tims hitting a c#1 here

  13. S.... ....

    This is fantastic! Wish I had the funds to come see you all in Louisville. Keep up the amazing work gentlemen.

  14. M.... B....

    can someone isolate the vocals of the B0 because ut just sounds like an amp ruffling

    M.... B....

    If you"ll watch Home Free"s Fishing in the dark Behind the scenes, there are parts, where Tim"s low notes are very good listenable.

  15. S.... P....

    Home Free has 2 YouTube videos that show how talented and hilarious these guys are. One is “Guilty Pleasure Songs” and the other one is “Songs Not Chosen.” Check them out!

  16. S.... A....

    I FEEL NO SHAME! IN THE BOONDOCKS!

  17. S.... C....

    Awesome harmonizing yeeeeehawww💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃❤

  18. A.... D....

    nice tim B0

  19. K.... R....

    any one else singing along at the same pitch as austen ( sorry if i spelled his name wrong)

    K.... R....

    Kylie Ramsay you bet- and it’s Austin*

  20. j.... b....

    Whew! I gotta go take a cold shower... SEXY guys! Love your voices too..

  21. d.... t....

    This is awesome

  22. K.... H....

    This song never gets old. My grandson got a kick out of the chicken stompin'.

  23. J.... M....

    Just COOL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  24. E.... S....

    Tim's bass is so deep that if he were ugly we would joke that he comes from Innsmouth.
    But he's the diametral opposite of ugly so we don't. And this comes from a straight male.

  25. C.... I....

    We miss Chris Rupp

    C.... I....

    Stefan Allendorf sadly most people don’t- I mean I do but a lot of people prefer Chance over Chris. I love Chris a lot but I do believe Chance’s voice fits better with the group. But Chris should have more fans and more appreciation

  26. D.... C....

    2:17 Austin looks like Michael Bolton 😂

  27. D.... C....

    I love Austin’s hype vocals 😂

  28. V.... O....

    Love this!! Don't know how I haven't seen it until now, but I missed it before. Y'all keep up the good work, you guys are awesome!!!

  29. M.... ....

    3:05 mein gott
    Adam killing it

  30. M.... F....

    Awesome!

  31. G.... R....

    Still one of my favourites, this song has an easy vibe to it, but at the same time there's some intensity. Love it and love Home Free!!:)

  32. A.... A....

    These guys are so talented. I love when Austin starts doing his thing! Love them! #teamaustin

  35. S.... T....

    Tim, nice B0 you got there, and I got confused between Austin and Adam

    S.... T....

    Sebastian Tran How? Adam does beatboxing and Austin does high tenor notes- it’s not hard

  36. M.... 1....

    My FAVORITE song by these guys!!!!

  37. T.... T....

    Adam's got dem mOVES

  38. M.... ....

    2:12 + 3:26 IS ANYONE GONNA SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THE ADAM HITTING THE MICHAEL JACKSON HARD?!

    M.... ....

    Can't even say anything...

  39. S.... W....

    Love this!! Great job guys!!!! 👍👍

  40. D.... :....

    **hits B0**
    stop spoiling us tim....

  41. S.... F....

    This song is awesomely written with the perfect country passion that everyone can get addicted to. The computer work was well done, too, of course.😚👍✌

  42. D.... ....

    Pentatonix is great, but they have sth special that makes them stand out of the crowd in my opinion ;)

  43. D.... B....

    loves loves have posted so many times you all are angels god bless

  44. K.... R....

    Got the pleasure of seeing you live in Paradise, Ca and will be there for the live show in Redding, Ca!! Love you guys so much!

  45. J.... P....

    Tim's growling bass sounds like the big pipes in a church organ. We might not hear the tone clearly, but we very surely feel it in our bones

  46. C.... B....

    dont get that wrong, I love this mashup, the video and your group. Seriously, I couldn't stop listening to all your songs and just them during two whole weeks.

    But when this clip become a advertissement for l'Oreal? (Maybe a French reference, I dont know, but the hair move... I cannot stop but think "Parce que vous le valez bien"... ^^

  47. d.... ....

    I still think about austin’s hair in this music video everyday

  59. V.... H....

    Love,love, love it!!! Your music makes me soooo happy!!!

  60. A.... ....

    Tim chugging a jar of what I assume moonshine, rooster got stepped on, Austin flipping his locks like a shampoo commercial model, Adam doing a Michael Jackson move, Tim combing his hair with a rake...

    What other cute easter eggs have you seen? 😁

  61. d.... z....

  68. S.... P....

    So cool Video!!

  69. S.... J....

    Too funny, six main characters in this video, the boys, and Austin’s hair!

  70. L.... F....

    Yeah 2:48

  71. K.... o....

    Don’cha think B0 is a bit excessive?

  72. D.... E....

    You guys could do anything! I think "I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing" by Aerosmith or Mark Chesnut would be Amazing! Keep it up!👍

  73. C.... G....

  74. G.... J....

    Loving them! Wish there was a really awsome girl a capella group ya'll could do something with!

  75. J.... H....

    Excellent!!

  76. J.... A....

    rip editor guy

  77. T.... F....

    No. I just learned 2 things here; oneuvm is why people start with a no when they agree w what u say...thuther is that these lyrics are way more than sentiment from one person to anuther. This is a God thing.

  78. B.... M....

    2:25 there is a super quiet growl, who else can hear it
    (Sounds more like a roar)

  79. L.... ....

    I love these guys! I want them to come to Los Angeles! Best acapella group ever..so country, and so perfect! LOVE them!

  80. M.... U....

    Is that Adam taking the bass AND beatbox at 3:08? Cause Tim is definitely on that 2. tenor.

  81. J.... J....

    Ngl I didn’t really notice Tim’s low note at 3:28 because I was focused on Adam’s Michael Jackson move

  82. G.... ....

    I love the dance moves Adam pulls off at about 2:12!

  83. D.... D....

    So excited my second concert to see Home Free tomorrow!!! The best acapella group I've been listening to. Others are good BUT I think they are the best and seem to really enjoy themselves!

  84. A.... N....

    Have 4 of their CD's.love this group

  85. B.... K....

    After 2:47 is awesome

  86. V.... M....

    I dont think anyone actually realizes that Tim is singing with Austin at 3:13 - 3:18 his vocal range is so impressive

  87. A.... ....

    I give it 10 MMM-Pappa's/Maow-Maow!

  88. L.... J....

    Great as always !

  89. k.... ....

    What an awesome arrangement. I just can't say enough good things about you guys. The twelfth time watching the video I finally noticed Tim combing his hair with the pitch fork. Too funny.

  90. B.... ....

    Rob is the coolest

  91. J.... B....

    Great job

  92. K.... o....

    3:20 Tim, You are not a human.
