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

Solo

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, I’ll 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

To the Oasis. So, I've got friends in low places
