I woke up at 5 a.m., put on my camouflage   Wiped off my .243 and fired up my Dodge   Headed out to my old deerstand back in the pines   Gonna get me a ten point buck with 11 inch tines, yeah      Settled in, hidin' from the wind, waitin' on the sun   You might end up being my supper if you get in the way of my gun   It's so still I can hear the train from ten miles away   If I'm here eight hours from now it'll be okay, yeah      'Cause I'm a backwoods boy, grew up on a dirt road   I'm a backwoods boy with no better place to go   Waitin' on a deer, wishin' on a star, I'll always be true to my heart   'Cause I'm a backwoods boy, I'm a backwoods boy      Sittin' on the back of Lynches River with a little campfire   Sleepin' on the ground, diggin' the sound of a backwoods choir   Talkin' to the man in the moon way up in the sky   He told me to let my worries roll on by, yeah      Cause I'm a backwoods boy, grew up on a dirt road   I'm a backwoods boy with no better place to go   Waitin' on a deer, wishin' on a star, I'll always be true to my heart   'Cause I'm a backwoods boy, I'm a backwoods boy      I'm a backwoods boy   I'm a backwoods boy   Backwoods boy   I'm a backwoods boy
