| When I first got to Nashville town
|
| They called me in and sat me down
|
| And told me all about the ins and outs of writing songs
|
| Said write about the things you know about
|
| If there’s anything that you don’t know about
|
| Just stick around and you’ll find out before too long
|
| So I pulled out my guitar and I put my pen to paper
|
| Started working on the groove
|
| They could move to all night long
|
| Yeah, I poured out my heart soul
|
| Strummed a chord, next thing you know
|
| I looked down and I had this song
|
| And it goes
|
| Jesus saves and beers better cold
|
| A good woman’s made to love not just to hold
|
| Monday through Friday sure takes awhile
|
| We all get sideways and go that extra mile
|
| The common ways we work and play
|
| Are still alive and well today
|
| Don’t need to find a new way to say
|
| We don’t go out of style
|
| It may never see a bullet
|
| In a billboard magazine
|
| But then I’ve never been the kind
|
| To go out chasing smoking guns
|
| All I know is all of us tonight
|
| Know all the words and we’re acting like
|
| It’ll be a week before the weekend’s done
|
| Singing, Jesus saves and beers better cold
|
| A good woman’s made to love not just to hold
|
| Monday through Friday sure takes awhile
|
| We all get sideways and go that extra mile
|
| The common ways we work and play
|
| Are still alive and well today
|
| Don’t need to find a new way to say
|
| We don’t go out of style
|
| Singing, Jesus saves and beers better cold
|
| A good woman’s made to love not just to hold
|
| Monday through Friday sure takes awhile
|
| We all get sideways and go that extra mile
|
| The common ways we work and play
|
| Are still alive and well today
|
| Don’t need to find a new way to say
|
| We don’t go out of style
|
| Ain’t going out of style
|
| Yeah, no
|
| Get me one of those cold beers |
