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 'cause
CHORUS
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 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 good night
And I'll show myself to the door
Hey I didn't mean to cause a big scene
Just give me and hour and then
I'll be as high as that ivory tower you're living in
CHORUS
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've finished this glass
Then sweet little baby
I'll head back to the bar
and you can kiss my a**!!!
