Well the moon just came over the tree tops And the whippoorwill started to sing So I slid down the hill Got into the still And drank till my ears started to ring I followed a trail to through the hollow To a shack back in the woods It?s my eighteenth birthday Honey come out and play Its time that we got to no good Now I ain?t afraid to be lonely But I still wanna learn about love I?m a hillbilly child raised in the wild Come lay down on my bare skin rug (VS.3) My dress is torn up and tattered My daddy left a long time ago And my hair just hangs down I never made it to town Momma said that?s where bad people go (VS.4) But me and my sister been talkin’ She?s eighteen one year older than me She laid down with a man I want to understand what she says I’ll never believe Now I ain?t afraid to be lonely But I still wanna learn about love I?m a hillbilly child raised in the wild Lay me down on your bare skin rug (BRIDGE) Now I need a woman And I need a man We ain?t got nobody An’ we ain?t even kin Now I ain?t afraid to be lonely But I still wanna learn about love I?m a hillbilly child raised in the wild Lay me down on your bare skin rug (No Chord) Come lay down on my bare skin

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque l'innocence de la jeunesse et la découverte des émotions liées à l'amour. Se déroulant dans la nature, elle met en avant un jeune homme qui, pour son dix-huitième anniversaire, cherche à vivre des instants passionnés avec une jeune femme, loin des conventions sociales. Il exprime son désir d’apprentissage sur les relations, malgré une vie marquée par l'abandon et la simplicité. Le récit se situe dans un environnement rural, où le protagoniste évoque sa vie de "hillbilly" pleine de liberté, mais aussi de solitude. Cette ambiance pastorale souligne la quête d'affection et de compréhension face à son désir d'explorer l'amour, tout en faisant écho à une adolescence sans repères.
