Golden Rules

We don't ever drive on planted field

You can borrow but you better not steal

Only kill what you gonna eat

Phone calls and love are both a two-way street

Never feed a dog off the table

Keep a good pair of jumper cables

In the toolbox on the Chevy

Keep that New King James ready

Yeah, we grew up

Red letters, good book, church pew'd up

Every Sunday learning "Do un

To others as we'd have them do unto us"

Yeah, that Matthew 7:12

Ain't the only one we stuck to

Around here there's more than a few

Of them small town golden rules, yeah

Last one through better shut the gate

It ain't trash till you try duct tape

Save a little bit every paycheck

Listen a little more and learn to say less

Watch your mouth at your momma's house

Don't start a fight, just talk it out

Buy a buddy a beer, hold your baby's hand

Fill the offering plate and tip the band

We grew up

Red letters, good book, church pew'd up

Every Sunday learning "Do un

To others as we'd have them do unto us"

Yeah, that Matthew 7:12

Ain't the only one we stuck to

Around here there's more than a few

Of them small town golden rules, yeah

It might not be written in the law

But we live by 'em, die by 'em, y'all

Yeah, we grew up

Red letters, good book, church pew'd up

Every Sunday learning "Do un

To others as we'd have them do unto us"

Yeah, that Matthew 7:12

Ain't the only one we stuck to

Around here there's more than a few

Of them small town golden rules, yeah

Small town golden rules, yeah
