(Capo on 4)
(Bm)Hey y'all, (G)hey (D)y'all, (Bm)hey, (A)hey (D)y'all
(D)Barhoppers, churchgoers, (Bm)Marlboro Light smokers
(A)Blue collar, red voters, (G)population 1,009
(D)Past year's cheerleaders, (Bm)old men fill the bleachers
(A)Skeptics, true believers, all (G)gathered on a Friday night
Singin' to the stars and stripes ---
(Chorus)
We're a drinkin' (G)town (D) with a football (A)problem
With two main (G)things (D) we all have in (A)common
We love 'em (Bm)both (G) and don't want to (D)solve 'em
We're a drinkin' (A)town (G) --- with a football (D)problem
(Bm)Hey y'all, singin', (G)hey (D)y'all, (Bm)hey, (A)hey (D)y'all
(D)Barn burners, nail biters, (Bm)shift workers, firefighters
(A)Prom queens, outsiders, all (G)livin' for the love of the game
We (D)still tell the same old story, re-(Bm)live former glory
(A)Went to state in '94, we got a (G)trophy in the school hallway
The kids pass it by each day
(Chorus)
We're a drinkin' (G)town (D) with a football (A)problem
With two main (G)things (D) we all have in (A)common
We love 'em (Bm)both (G) and don't want to (D)solve 'em
We're a drinkin' (A)town (G) with a football (D)problem, hey, hey
Solo: |(Bm) |(Bm) |(G) |(D) |(Bm) |(A) |(G) |(G)
(Chorus)
When we (Bm)win, we celebrate, and when we (G)lose, we commiserate (D)
Win or (A)lose, we tie one on
(Chorus)
We're a drinkin' (G)town (D) with a football (A)problem
With two main (G)things (D) we all have in (A)common
We love 'em (Bm)both (G) and don't want to (D)solve 'em
We're a drinkin' (A)town (G) --- with a football (D)problem
Hay, say, (Bm)hey, y'all, (G)hey (D)y'all
(Bm)Hey, (A)hey (D)y'all -----
