Lyrics Charlie Farley – I Know These Hills
Text:
Oooohhh
Oh that’s that business
I know these hills
I know these hills
Where they’ll lay my body down
I don’t know a city life
Ain’t ever lived on city streets
I don’t know about a gat
Ain’t ever called a gun a heat
I don’t know about a lo lo
With lo pros on its feet
What I do know is those dirt roads
Are the life for me
I don’t know a shopping mall
Ain’t ever had a pair of kicks
I don’t own a fancy car
Ain’t ever wanted to be rich
I don’t know about a pimp with a limp
And whip full of tricks
Cause we ain’t got a boulevard
Living this far out in the sticks
I don’t know a prostitute
Ain’t ever called a girl a bitch
Unless talking to my dog
That’s what the definition is
Round here it’s
Yes ma’am, no sir, and lift kits
I don’t know a whole lot
But I do know this
(Ooooh)
Yeah, you can say I’m whatever
You can say I’m slow just because I live out here in these woods
That’s all I know so like it, love it, or hate it I don’t care
I know these hills
I know these hills
I know the touch of the sacred ground
Where they’ll lay my body down
I don’t love an Interstate
Ain’t ever wanted to be fast
I ain’t ever sipping lean
Jim Beam in my glass
I don’t need a GPS
I don’t want a road map
I can find my way around here
Even when it’s pitch black
I don’t own a watch
I’ll sit ‘n watch the sun pass
I don’t own a lot
But what I got
I ain’t gotta give back
I ain’t seen a skyscraper
Have you heard of Johnny Cash
I’m from the same neck of the woods
As his bad ass
I ain’t ever been a thug
But I do love rap
So I rep where I’m from
And I’m from out back
So I rap about what I know
What I do, what I have
What I’ve seen and been through
And you gotta respect that
(Ooooh)
You call it country rap, hick-hop, rebel core, whatever
I just call it Charlie Farley music
Cause this is who I am
I know these hills
I know these hills
I know the touch of the sacred ground
Where they’ll lay my body down
(Ooooh)
I know these hills
I know these hills
I know the touch of the sacred ground
Where they’ll lay my body down
