Lyrics

[Verse 1]
First time in a barroom, when I was just a boy
Two men commenced to fightin', it was fightin' they enjoyed
And as fast as it started, it was over and done
One man left standin', there could only be one
Well, he looked me in the eye and said, "Come on, son"
It's time to drink some whiskey and this is how it's done
[Verse 2]
This is how it's done
This is how it's done
This is how it's done
Yeah, this is how it's done
[Verse 3]
Now, honky tonks and juke joints, they fast became my home
Always in good company wherever I would roam
Stompin' to the music with a cold one in my hand
One night, a pretty cowgirl's eyes cried, "Catch me if you can"
Well, I followed her to the dance floor
And she'd show me where she's from
When I yelled out to the crowd, Hey, now this is how it's done
[Verse 4]
This is how it's done
Yeah, this is how it's done
This is how it's done
Yeah, this is how it's done
[Verse 5]
Now, I ain't lookin' for no trouble, but backin' down won't do
I'd rather sip my whiskey and buy a round for you
But if you insist on fightin', well you may be sorry, son
'Cause you're messin' with a veteran of kickin' ass for fun
[Verse 6]
This is how it's done
Yeah, this is how it's done
This is how it's done
Yeah, this is how it's done, son
This is how it's done
Yeah, this is how it's done
This is how it's done
Now, this is how it's done
