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 youd see there
And I saw the surprise
And the fear in his eyes
When I took this glass of champagne
And I toasted you
Said, honey, we may be through
But youll never hear me complain
CHORUS:
Cause Ive got friends in low places
Where the Jack Daniels drowns
And the Coors Light chases my blues away
And Ill be okay
Im not big on social graces
Think Ill slip on down to the oasis
Oh Ive got friends in low places
Well, I guess I was wrong
I just dont belong
But then, Ive been there before
Everythings all right
Ill just say goodnight
And show myself to the door
Hey, I didnt mean
To cause a big scene
Just give me an hour and then
Well, Ill be as high
As that ivory tower
That youre livin in
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Ive got friends in low places
Where the Jack Daniels drowns
And the Coors Light chases my blues away
And Ill be okay
Im not big on social graces
Think Ill slip on down to the oasis
Oh Ive got friends in low places
Well 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
Hey I didn't mean to cause a big scene
Just wait 'til I've finished this glass
Then sweet little lady
I'll head back to the bar
And you can kiss my ass!
Ive got friends in low places
Where the Jack Daniels drowns
And the Coors light chases my blues away
And Ill be okay
Im not
