Those Poor Bastards - In the Backwoods lyrics

Well I was raised by Papa Misery And Mama Guitar I never had no Place to call home Except for the woods behind the pond In the backwoods In the backwoods That's where I belong Sister Merry And brother Gently lost their homes in the big black mud (They lost it all, yeah) They moved to Georgia But I didn't follow I stayed back home to tend the farm I got me a dog, he's got no eyes I cut 'em out 'cause I though he was watchin' me So I got me a girl, she got no legs I cut 'em off so she wouldn't go cheatin' (yeah, no more cheatin' now) In the backwoods (I know I done some things wrong) In the backwoods (But it got just so dog-gone lonesome) That's where I belong In the backwoods In the backwoods That's where I belong In the backwoods In the backwoods That's where I belong In the backwoods
