Intro
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
champ-aign
And, I toasted you, said, honey, we may be through, but you'll never hear me
...
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.
Yea I'm not big on social graces think I'll slip on down
To the Oasis. So, 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
Every-thing'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
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.
Yea I'm not big on social graces think I'll slip on down
To the Oasis. So, I've got friends in low places
Verse 3
Well, I guess I was wrong, I just don't belong, but then I've been there before
Every-thing'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 wait 'til I finish this glass.
Then, sweet little lady, Ill head back to the bar, 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.
Yea I'm not big on social graces think I'll slip on down
