The Locals

Yeah the locals know where the local crowd lives
On Tuesdays from seven to nine
Yeah, they talk all the time how just overnight
The high-school's doubled in size

In just one or two words in don't take much
They can tell you ain't from round here
Yeah, but if I know them son
It don't matter where you're from
If you're thirsty they'll buy you a beer

Yeah, the locals, they're the lifeblood here till the day they die
Yeah, the locals tell the stories keeping the heroes alive
They turn down town upside down, they live to have the time of their lives
The night ain't over yet and, man, I hope I get
To have a drink with the locals tonight
The locals tonight

Yeah the locals know all the shortcuts around
The red light and busy streets
The best spots by far to go park your car
And crawl back in the backseat

There ain't much to do, there ain't much to see
But they like just how it is
And any local I know will tell ya right where to go
If you ever try messing with his

Yeah, the locals, they're the lifeblood here till the day they die
Yeah, the locals tell the stories keeping the heroes alive
They turn down town upside down, they live to have the time of their lives
The night ain't over yet and, man, I hope I get
To have a drink with the locals tonight
The locals

See the locals, they know, how to put on a show
And they show up with all of their friends
They are who they are because of this town
But this town ain't no town without them

The locals, they're the lifeblood here till the day they die
Yeah, the locals tell the stories keeping the heroes alive
They turn down town upside down, they live to have the time of their lives
The night ain't over yet and, man, I hope I get
To have a drink with the locals tonight
The locals tonight

Oh yeah, the locals tonight
