Chely Wright Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I guess I've always liked that 'bout us
We usually end up on the floor laughin'
Makin' fun of whatever it was
Passions run high and it might seem like sometimes
We don't get along
Fight a little fight but we get through it
When you're lovin' like this you hold on to it
Baby that's just the way we do it
If we hold back on what we're feelin'
We run the danger of growin' apart
Everybody knows that's how love goes
From good to bad in the beat of a heart
As long as we talkin', nobody's walkin' out
Right or wrong
Baby that's just the way we do it
Fight a little fight but we get through it
When you're lovin' like this you hold on to it
Baby that's just the way we do it
Baby that's just the way we do it
Fight a little fight but we get through it
When you lovin' like this you hold on to it
Baby that's just the way
Baby that's just the way we do it
Baby that's just the way we do it
Fight a little fight but we get through it
When you're lovin' like this you hold on to it
Baby that's just the way we do it
Baby we know what we're fighting for
Ain't nobody walking out that door
Baby that's just the way we do it
Fight a little fight but we get through it
When you're lovin' like this you hold on to it
Baby that's just the way we do it
In "Just The Way We Do It," country music artist Chely Wright sings about the ups and downs of a relationship. The song highlights the fact that despite differences and occasional disagreements, the couple in the song chooses to work things out and keep the love alive. The lyrics point out that the couple doesn't hold a grudge for long because they value their relationship and know how to make each other laugh. Instead of sweeping their problems under the rug, the two characters in the song choose to confront them head-on, maintaining honest communication in their relationship. The catchy chorus of the song celebrates the couple's motto of fighting a little but getting through it as a team.
The lyrics presented in "Just The Way We Do It" are relatable to any couple who encounters problems that arise in a relationship. One major takeaway is that healthy relationships require effort and compromise. Sometimes, it's easy to overlook problems or hide our feelings for the sake of keeping the peace, but that can lead to long-term resentment and disconnect. The song reminds listeners that confronting issues and dealing with them as a team is the best way to maintain a healthy and happy partnership.

I was serving in the US army from 01-05, stationed in South Korea in the dead of winter, -15 outside. This woman, Chely Wright was on a USO tour. She spent 9 hours outside signing autographs and giving every single soldier a hug. A truly beautiful woman inside and out
