Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Down on Main Street after sundown,

Good time Charlie, and Wanderin' Bill

Thought they might hold up, ol' Hoppy's Drive-In;

One got away and one never will.

Chorus

And that's the way it goes around here;

(around here)

I think everybody knows

(I guess everybody knows)

That's the song they've been singin' for years

(and years)

That's the way the wild wind blows

(wild wind blows)

Too Tall Annie kept her money

In a Bible she never read.

They found Lefty, her first ex-husband

In his new pick-up truck at the bottom of the river bed.

Chorus

Bridge

Luther Martin, he ain’t got nobody,

But he sells papers and buys his wine.

His great-granddaddy owned half of Main Street;

Luther’s daddy didn’t have a dime.

Chorus

Ain’t no secret Old Doc Skinner

Wrote prescriptions; made lots of friends.

He could dance like nobody’s business;

Folks around here, are sure missin’ him.
