Lyrics[]

I like things just the way they are
Don't redefine marriage, you're going too far
Life begins as a precious stem cell
I know how to empty that jail
'Cause I'm done paying your sorry rent
Time for some more capital punishment

Let's just keep everything the same
Gonna pray at the start of every football game
You lefties have just taken things too far
So leave it alone
'Cause I like things just the way they are

I like things just the way they were
You could smoke in restaurants and wear fur
You shoot some men up into space
And everyone knew their rightful place
We won wars and we stood strong
We knew what was right and what was wrong

Let's just keep everything the same
Gonna pray at the start of every football game
You lefties have just taken things too far
So leave it alone
'Cause I like things just the way they are

I like cool country mornings
Spray cheese in my mouth
Let's keep everything pure
Just like the South

Let's just keep everything the same
Gonna pray at the start of every football game
You lefties have just taken things too far
So leave it alone
'Cause I like things just the way they are

Yeah, I like things
Just the way they are

Trivia[]

The song is possibly a parody of Game On, which was written by the duo, First Love. The song was written to promote right-wing Republican politician, Rick Santorum during the 2012 US Presidential Election. The song met overwhelming backlash due to the extreme right-wing views celebrated in the song.
The song uses Small Stuff by Dan Robinson as the instrumental base.
