Down on Main Street, after sundown
Good Time Charlie and Wandering Bill
Thought they might hold up old Hoppy's Drive In
One got away, one never will

[Chorus:]
And that's the way it goes around here
I think everybody knows
That's the song we've been singin' for years
That's the way the wild wind blows

Too-tall Annie kept her money
In a Bible she never read
They found Lefty - her first ex-husband 
In his new pickup truck at the bottom of the river bed

[Chorus]

Luther Martin - he ain't got no money
But he sells papers and buys his wine
His great granddaddy owned half of Main Street
Luther's daddy didn't have a dime

[Chorus]

Ain't no secret ol' Doc Skinner
Wrote prescriptions, made lots of friends
He could dance like nobody's business
Folks around here are sure missing him

[Chorus]
