Friends in Low Places
Blame it all on my roots
I showed up in boots
And ruined your black-tie affair
The last one to know
Last one to show
I was the last one you thought you'd see there
And I saw the surprise
And the fear in his eyes
When I took his glass of champagne
And 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 in social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh, I've got friends
In low places
Well, I guess I was wrong
I just don't belong
But then, I've been there before
Everything's alright
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
Well, I'll be as high as that ivory tower
That you're living 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 in social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh, I've got friends
In low places
Oh, 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 in social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh, I've got friends
In low places
Yeah, 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 in social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh, I've got friends
In low places
I showed up in boots
And ruined your black-tie affair
The last one to know
Last one to show
I was the last one you thought you'd see there
And I saw the surprise
And the fear in his eyes
When I took his glass of champagne
And 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 in social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh, I've got friends
In low places
Well, I guess I was wrong

Oh, I've got friends in low places

And I'll be okay
Yeah, I'm not big in social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh, I've got friends
In low places
Yeah, 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 in social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh, I've got friends
In low places
