Lyrics
Hangin with my buddies at the local bar
To celebrate my wedding a night before
This is my home
I grew up here
Where I fit in
Where I drink beer
It ain’t pretty
Where I’ve grown
It’s real gritty
But it’s my home
Where else would I go
I like the show
I grew up here
where I drink beer
It ain’t pretty
Ain’t nice
It’s round the corner
And it’s my life
Hangin with my buddies at the local bar
To celebrate my wedding a night before
We drank, laughed and partied
Till the night was gone
Then we got into our car
When somebody yelled, “They got a gun”!
The cops were hot
they shot they shot they shot
They shot
fifty shots
That was my home
I grew up there
Where I fit in
Where I drank beer
It ain’t pretty
ain’t nice
It’s real gritty
But it was my life
Hangin with my buddies at the local bar
