Friends in Low Places

Blame it all on my roots, I showed up in boots 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 I saw the surprise, the fear in his eyes When I took his glass of champagne And I toasted you, said, "Honey, we may be through 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 Oh, I'm not big on 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 You know 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 Well, I'm not big on social graces Think I'll slip on down to the oasis 'Cause I've got friends in low places Well, I've got friends in low places Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases My blues away, and I'll be okay Oh, I'm not big on social graces Think I'll slip on down to the oasis 'Cause 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
