Bill Mallonee - Everybody Does

[Verse 1]
You know, I can't remember
Where the transaction took place
Where the glad exchange and happy fault
Smiled and embraced
She said, "You know I love you"
And I believed her just because
I had some bad religion once, but then
Everybody does

[Chorus]
Everybody does
Everybody does
Everybody does
[Verse 2]
I soldiered through East Texas
Put my two years in
We were sеnt to solve a problem
They callеd the Indian
I cut bait in the last battle
I felt not a lick of shame
I could not slay brother or sister
In any God's good name

[Chorus]
But everybody does
Everybody does
Everybody does

[Verse 3]
I was baptized in the Brazos
By a medicine man
He put a stone with my new name on it
In the palm of my hand
You might say my eyes were opened
When I lifted up the cup
You might say my eyes were opened
But I hardly knew they were shut

[Chorus]
Everybody does
Everybody does
Everybody does
Everybody does
Everybody does
Everybody does
[Guitar Solo]
