 so if you do not like the  and  chords, just drop them.
 -- To get the right key, you have to tune the guitar down a half step. I hope you
 like this, enjoy!
 (the  chord is written twice to show the beat)
So  you're tired and beat
And  you've worked all week
And  you need a place you can let it go.
Where  the girls go wild
And  the boys play hard
 And you need a little more than just  the radio.
 Well here's your open  invitation
 With just a couple  regulations.
 Let me warn  you son, only come to have fun
 We don't take kindly to serious.
 So leave your troubles  at the door
 Unless you want  some in here.
 Welcome to my  house, buckle up tight
 Everybody sings  and drinks, laughs  & gets  high.
 It's a country  music, a little  soul, it's a rock  'n roll rodeo.
 We don't tolerate  no sitting around
 Everybody's dancin',  groovin' and getting on down.
 So before  you come in here with some kind of attitude
 You better read the house rules.
 Around eleven  o'clock when the front door locks
And  the boys start raising the bottle.
Where  the girls do the thing with the Mardis Gras beads
 Yeah, You know they're gonna show 'em if they got  'em.
 No matter  what your story, a  good time is mandatory.
 Well rule  number 7 says don't touch the women
 But they can grab whatever they want  to.
 Welcome to my  house, buckle up tight
 Everybody sings  and drinks, laughs  & gets  high.
 It's a country  music, a little  soul, it's a rock'  n roll rodeo.
 We don't tolerate  no sitting around
 Everybody's dancing,'  groovin' and getting on down.
 So before  you come in here with some kind of attitude
 You better read the house rules.
 No such thing  as last call.
 We pick' em up  when they fall .
 We share the same  bathroom stall,
 Says the sign  on the wall. (1, 2, 3)
 Welcome to my  house, buckle up tight
 Everybody sings  and drinks, laughs  & gets  high.
 It's a country  music, a little  soul, it's a rock  n roll rodeo.
 We don't tolerate  no sitting around
 Everybody's dancin',  groovin' and getting on down.
 So before  you come in here with some kind of attitude
 Boy, before  you come a walkin' in here with any kind of attitude
 You better read the house rules.
 You better  read the house  rules.
 -- There is more lead guitar and stuff after this and the end of the song brings
 back that intro beat
 and the last chords shown here. Again, hope you all enjoy this because it is a great song!
