Friends In Low Places

Blame it all on my roots
I showed up in boots
Ruined your black tie affair
Last one to know
Last one to show
I was the last one you thought you'd see there

I saw the surprise
And the fear in his eyes
When I took his glass of champagne
I toasted you
Said, "Honey, we may be through
But you'll never hear me complain!"

'Cause I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns
And the beer chases my blues away
And I'll be okay

Yeah, I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh, I've got friends
Low places

I guess I was wrong
I just don't belong
But then, I've been there before
Everything's all right
I'll just say goodnight
And I'll show myself to the door

Hey, I didn't mean
To cause a big scene
Just give me an hour and then
I'll be as high as that ivory tower
You're livin' in

'Cause I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns
And the beer chases my blues away
And I'll be okay

Yeah, I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
So I've got friends
Low places
(back-round cheering)

I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns
And the beer chases my blues away
And I'll be okay

Yeah, I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
So I've got friends
Low places
(back-round cheering)

Now I got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns
And the beer chases, my blues away
And I'll be okayTFF
