Standard (EADGBE)

Ain't but a half a mile between the city limit signs

Population nine hundred 'n' nine

A lotta front porch swingin', down home livin'

Friday night hell raisin', Sunday morning repentance

We got our gossip goin' on down at Betty's Beauty Shop

They're sellin' 90 proof corn juice out back at the co-op

Judge Taylor likes to fight when his potbelly's full of beer

Theres always somethin' goin' on

 But there ain't nothin' goin' wrong around here

Chorus

 We got kids burnin' rubber 'round the old town square

 Tall tales being told in Harry's barber chair

Life moves slow

 There's always somethin' goin' on

 But there ain't nothin goin' wrong around here

Old men bettin' on the weather on the courthouse stairs

Luther wackin' off weeds in his underwear

They go moon skinny-dippin this time of year

 Theres always somethin' on

 But there ain't nothin' goin' wrong around here

Chorus

 We got kids burnin' rubber 'round the old town square

 Tall tales being told in Harry's barber chair

Life moves slow

 There's always somethin' goin' on

 But there ain't nothin goin' wrong around here

Only time Sheriff Lester breaks his handcuffs out

Is when his wife's been drinkin' and they're back at the house

He'll be walking' 'round for days in a daze grinnin' ear to ear

 There's always somethin' goin' on

 But there ain't nothin' going wrong around here
