How It's Done Around Here Lyrics

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

That's how it's done around here
