How It's Done Around Here
Folks 'round here don't like complicated
Not a care in the world 'cause worrying's overrated
Work all day at night they're celebrating
And nobody really knows why
Where the clock strikes five at half past noon
And the drinking don't start a minute too soon
The moonshine's gone before we see the moon
But that's how it's done around here
When the sun goes down there's only one spot
Where the beers stay cold and the ladies stay hot
So take a walk to the honky-tonk
And let me show you that I'm not all talk
Where the good folks come when they're feeling lonely
Bartender's gotcha, drinks are never low
You don't want the Father, Son, or Holy Ghost
To see what you're doing 'round here
Only hear the song once and they already know
Pay for a drink, stick around for the show
Wait to see the sun before you hit the road
That's how it's done
That's how it's done around here
That's how it's done around here
Where everyone prays to the Holy Spirits
After a long day they tend to make an appearance
Solve all your problems chase it down with a beer
It's just how we do it 'round here
Where the boys in blue will come to shut us down
But they stick around
Then they're buying us all another round
'Cause that's the only way they run this town
And that's how you protect and serve
When the sun goes down there's only one spot
Where the beers stay cold and the ladies stay hot
So take a walk to the honky-tonk
And let me show you that I'm not all talk
Where the good folks come when they're feeling lonely
Bartender's gotcha, drinks are never low
You don't want the Father, Son, or Holy Ghost
To see what you're doing 'round here
Only hear the song once and they already know
Pay for a drink, stick around for the show
Wait to see the sun before you hit the road
That's how it's done
That's how it's done around here
When the sun goes down there's only one spot
Where the beers stay cold and the ladies stay hot
So take a walk to the honky-tonk
And let me show you that I'm not all talk
Where the good folks come when they're feeling lonely
Bartender's gotcha, drinks are never low
You don't want the Father, Son, or Holy Ghost
To see what you're doing 'round here
Only hear the song once and they already know
Pay for a drink, stick around for the show
Wait to see the sun before you hit the road
That's how it's done
That's how it's done
Where the good folks come when they're feeling lonely
Bartender's gotcha, drinks are never low
You don't want the Father, Son, or Holy Ghost
To see what you're doing 'round here
Only hear the song once and they already know
Pay for a drink, stick around for the show
Wait to see the sun before you hit the road
That's how it's done
