G C G
I knew a man who came down from Kentucky
G A D
And everyone would whisper, "Boy he sure is lucky"
G C G
He'd go to church every Sunday and have breakfast at Stuckey's
D G
He rubbed somebody the right way
G C G
And all I'm askin' for you to do
G A D
Is live by this simple creed I give to you
G C G
Just take five minutes out of your day
G D G
And rub somebody the right way
G C G
Well I knew a woman who could act like a girl
G A D
She held the secret for peace in this world
G C G
She'd stand on her porch, with a baton she'd twirl
G D G
Singing, "Rub somebody the right way"
[Chorus]
G C G
And all I'm askin' for you to do
G A D
Is live by this simple creed I give to you
G C G
Just take five minutes out of your day
G D G
And rub somebody the right way
[BRIDGE][Verse]
F C
Now I know there's times you're frustrated and low
F C
You'd like a shotgun to shoot down your foes
F C
You swam with your sorrows, but both of you drowned
F A D
So tighten your seatbelt, wipe off that frown
[Chorus]
G C G
And all I'm askin' for you to do
G A D
Is live by this simple creed I give to you
G C G
Just take five minutes out of your day
G D G
And rub somebody the right way
[Verse]
G C G
Time passes quick, and you know how it goes
G A D
You can open your arms, you can turn up your nose
G C G
You'll have much, much more fun if you make peace with your foes
G D G
And rub somebody the right way
[Chorus]
G C G
And all I'm askin' for you to do
G A D
Is live by this simple creed I give to you
G C G
Just take five minutes out of your day
G D G
And rub somebody the right way
[Repeat]
G D G
Got to rub somebody the right way
