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 complaing '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 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 '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 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 '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 Oh I've got friends in low places
