Some do while others do not. To be solid a substance must merely have a melting point that is above room temperature. Gallium has a melting point just above room temperature, so it is normally solid but it will melt in the palm of your hand. By contrast Tungsten has such a high melting point that not even the hottest lava from Earth's volcanoes can come close to melting it.
