Intro: (E) (E)
Well, you (E) must be from the city
Cause you sure ain't from 'round here
There ain't no smoke-free section
We don't (D) sell no (A) import (E) beer
You been throwin' 'round that attitude
Since you walked through that door
I don't know where you come from
But, you (NO CHORD) ain't there anymore
(Chorus:)
When in (A) Rome
You can do like the (E) Romans
But, when you're down (B) home
You better do like (E) us
You've been (E) looking down your nose
At our water tower town
Ain't no one gettin' rich
But there's e(D)nough to (A) go ar(E)ound
If you don't like Tracy's cooking
Well, you best still leave a tip
She's back there in the kitchen
With a (D) baby (A) on her (E) hip
Repeat
(Bridge:)
You (E) put your best foot (G) forward
When you (D) go to meet a (A) man
(E) Look him in the (G) eye
Put a (D) good grip on his (A) hand
Don't (E) cuss around the (G) ladies
Tell us (D) how to raise our kids
(B) We like doin' business
Like our daddy's daddy did
SOLO
When you (E) drive off in your Beemer
If you don't go 35
Don't give no lip to Buford
Or he (D) might just (A) dot your (E) eye
And when you're at the courthouse
Before Jude McCall
You best not say a word
Bout them (NO CHORD) commandments on his wall - Naw..
Repeat Chorus Twice
