Rub Somebody (the Right Way)

I knew a man who came down from kentucky
And everyone would whisper, "boy he sure is lucky"
He'd go to church every sunday and have breakfast at stuckey's
He rubbed somebody the right way

And all i'm askin' for you to do
Is live by this simple creed i give to you
Just take five minutes out of your day
And rub somebody the right way

Well i knew a woman who could act like a girl
She held the secret for peace in this world
She'd stand on her porch, with a baton she'd twirl
Singing, "rub somebody the right way"

And all i'm askin' for you to do
Is live by this simple creed i give to you
Just take five minutes out of your day
And rub somebody the right way

Now i know there's times you're frustrated and low
You'd like a shotgun to shoot down your foes
You swam with your sorrows, but both of you drowned
So tighten your seatbelt, wipe off that frown

And all i'm askin' for you to do
Is live by this simple creed i give to you
Just take five minutes out of your day
And rub somebody the right way

Time passes quick, and you know how it goes
You can open your arms, you can turn up your nose
You'll have much, much more fun if you make peace with your foes
And rub somebody the right way

And all i'm askin' for you to do
Is live by this simple creed i give to you
Just take five minutes out of your day
And rub somebody the right way

And all i'm askin' for you to do
Is live by this simple creed i give to you
Just take five minutes out of your day
And rub somebody the right way
Got to rub somebody the right way
