Friends In Low Places
(dewayne blackwell, bud lee)
Blame it all on my roots, i showed up in boots
And ruined your black tie affair
The last one to show, the last one to know
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
Then 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 & there beer chases
My blues away & i'll be ok
Hey, 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 all right, i'll just say goodnight
And i'll show myself to the door
Hey, i didn't mean to cause a big scene
But give me an hour & then
I'll be as high as this ivory tower
That you're livin' in
Repeat chorus
