O’hene Savant - Backwoods lyrics

In them backwoods, in them backwoods
Jimmy Lee
Watson, and the Jimmy Lee Watson Band
Effingham Records lookee here

What the hell are y’all talkin’?
Jimmy Lee Watson my methods is awesome
Dedicated to the ones who was doubtin’
This is my moment I’m battin’ a thousand
Effingham Records, Dennis we got it
No this ain’t Elvis the hell if he watchin’
House ngga figures be shuckin’ and jivin’
South Carolinans be steady survivin’ so
Hit me one time, hit me two times
Go to war I’m
This a new time, best if you watch it
Visual era this not a soap opera
You act good then you have good
That’s how we do in them backwoods
If you act good then you have good
The way in the backwoods

In them backwoods huh, in them backwoods
In them backwoods yes sir, in them backwoods

Lookee here

From them backwoods
Deep in that patch where our shack was
Don’t think backwards ‘cau’ we educated
First of our people that demonstrated
Did the marches, it was Martin
Medgar Evers keep on walkin’
It’s for Garvey, and them freedom fighters
We a army, we move calmly
Ain’t no fear that the klan they gon’ harm me
They might taunt me but don’t alarm me
Chitlin Circuit we workin’ that r&b
We right here and we airin’ they laundry
Fresh out them backwoods where them hogs be
Not on all four and I’m
What it cost me, to be black in America
Y’all see, so I’m gon’ be

In them backwoods, huh in them backwoods
In them backwoods in them backwoods

In them backwoods, eh heh in them backwoods
In them backwoods way in them backwoods

Now, ladies and gentlemen
I wanna introduce you all to a
Group that I love and know
So well, they come a long way with
Me and the Jimmy Lee Watson Band
They are known as the Rap Soulettes, yes sa’
First up we have the beautiful Marilyn
Williams, next we have the chicken skins Miss
Peaches Eleanor, inner vision, I cannot
I will not forget the
Lovely Miss Betty Johnson
