I feel no shame, I'm proud from where I came
I was born and raised in the boondocks, yeah
One thing I know, no matter where I go
I keep my heart and soul down in the boondocks, that's right
And I can feel that muddy water
Running through my vein, yeah
I can hear that lullaby of a midnight train
And it sings to me and sounds so familiar, whoa
I feel no shame, I'm proud from where I came
I was born and raised in the boondocks, yeah, yeah, yeah
One thing I know, no matter where I may go
I kwas born and raised down in the boondocks
I can taste that honeysuckle
And it's still so sweet, yeah, it's so sweet, so sweet
When it grows wild on the banks down at old camp creek
And it calls to me like a warm wind blowing
I feel no shame, I'm proud from where I came
I was born and raised in the boondocks, yeah, yeah, yeah
One thing I know, no matter where I might go
I have my heart and soul in the boondocks
Now listen
It's where I learned about living, whoa yeah
Where I learned about love, alright
It's where I learned about working hard, uh huh
And having a little was just enough
It's where I learned about Jesus, oh yeah
And knowing where I stand, uh huh
You can take it or leave it
This is me, this is who I am
Feel no shame I'm proud from where I am
I was born down in the boondocks, yeah
One thing I know, no matter where I go
Got my heart and soul in the boondocks
Give me a tin roof
A front porch and a gravel, a gravel road
And that's home to me
Feels like home to me, yeah, now
You get a line, I'll get a pole, yeah
We'll go fishing in the craw fish hole
Five-card poker on a Saturday night
Church on Sunday morning, yeah, yeah
I was born and raised
Down in the boondocks
One thing I know, no matter where I may go
My heart and soul in the boondocks
I feel no shame, I'm proud from where I came
I was born and raised in the boondocks, yeah
One thing I know, no matter where I go
I keep my heart and soul down in the boondocks
In the boondocks

Etta James (Los Angeles, 25 gennaio 1938 – Riverside, 20 gennaio 2012) è stata una cantante statunitense di blues, soul e rhythm and blues. Considerata una delle voci più potenti e influenti della storia della musica americana, Etta James ha lasciato un'impronta indelebile nel panorama musicale del XX secolo. Nata da madre afro-americana e padre italiano, iniziò a cantare gospel fin da bambina. La sua carriera si sviluppò negli anni '50 con l'incontro con Johnny Otis, che la introdusse al mondo della musica blues e rhythm and blues. Il suo stile vocale, caratterizzato da una potente voce roca e un'interpretazione emozionante, le valse il successo internazionale. Tra i suoi brani più famosi ricordiamo "At Last", "I'd Rather Go Blind" e "Tell Mama". Nel corso della sua lunga carriera ha collaborato con artisti di spicco come Ray Charles e B.B. King. Etta James è stata insignita di numerosi premi, tra cui il Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award nel 1993.
