[Verse 1]
Blame it all on my roots, I showed up in boots
And ruined your black tie affair
The last one to know, the 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"
[Chorus]
'Cause I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases
My blues away and I'll be okay
I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the Oasis
Oh, I've got friends, in low places
[Verse 2]
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 livin' in
[Chorus]
'Cause I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases
My blues away, and I'll be okay
Hell, I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the Oasis
Oh, I've got friends in low places
[Chorus]
Everybody
'Cause I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases
My blues away and I'll be okay
Hell, I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the Oasis
Oh, I've got friends in low places
[Break]
Now that' we're off the radio we can do this last verse right
[Verse 3]
I guess I was wrong, I just don't belong
But then, I've been there before
And everything is alright, I'll just say goodnight
And I'll show myself to the door
I didn't mean to cause a big scene
Just wait 'til I finish this glass
Then sweet little lady I'll head back to the bar
Help me out now
And you can kiss my ass
[Chorus]
'Cause I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases
My blues away and I'll be okay
I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the Oasis
Oh, I've got friends in low places
Now it's all you guys, let me hear it, okay?
I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases
My blues away and I'll be okay
I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll slip on down to the Oasis
Oh, I've got friends in low places
Honey, I've got friends in low places
[Outro]
God bless you guys
Thanks a lot
