Travis Tritt - When In Rome lyrics
Well, you must be from the city 'cause you sure ain't from 'round here
There ain't no smoke free section, we don't sell no import beer
You been throwing round that attitude since you walked in that door
I don't know where you come from but you ain't there anymore
When in Rome, you can do like the Romans
But when your down home you better do like us
You been lookin down your nose at our water tower town
Ain't no one getting rich but, there's enough to go around
If you don't like tracy's cooking, well, you best still leave a tip
She's back there in that kitchen with a baby on her hip
When in Rome, you can do like the Romans
But when you're down home you better do like us
You put your best foot forward when you go to meet a man
Look him in the eye and put a good grip on his hand
Don't cuss around the ladies, tell us how to raise our kids
We like doing business like our daddies, daddies did
When you drive off in your beamer if you don't do 35
Don't give no lip to Beuford or he might just dot your eye
And when your at the courthouse before ol' judge McCall
You best not say a word about them comandments on his wall, no
When in Rome, you can do like the Romans
But when you're down home you better do like us
Yeah, yeah, yeah
When in Rome, you can do like the Romans
But when you're down home you better do like us, mmmm hmmm
You better do like us, boy
Yeah, don't you come in here talking all that trash
You just might get your nose smashed, yeah, yeah
When in Rome, you can do like the Romans
