[00:08.669]Blame it all on my roots
[00:11.078]I showed up in boots
[00:13.481]Ruined your black tie affair
[00:17.494]
[00:18.027]The last one to know
[00:20.159]The last one to show
[00:22.027]I was the last one
[00:23.344]You thought you’d see there
[00:26.008]
[00:27.074]And I saw the surprise
[00:28.969]And the fear in his eyes
[00:31.093]When I took his glass of champagne
[00:34.827]
[00:35.628]And I toasted you
[00:37.498]Said, “Honey, we may be through
[00:40.181]But you’ll never hear me complain”
[00:44.467]
[00:44.751]Cause I’ve got friends in low places
[00:48.760]Where the whiskey drowns
[00:51.139]And the beer chases my blues away
[00:56.727]And I’ll be okay
[01:02.324]I’m not big on social graces
[01:06.597]Think I’ll slip on down to the oasis
[01:10.852]Cause I’ve got friends in low places
[01:18.069]
[01:18.602](Instrumental)
[01:37.235]
[01:38.037]Well, I guess I was wrong
[01:40.159]I just don’t belong
[01:42.543]But then, I’ve been there before
[01:46.790]Everything’s all right
[01:48.944]And I’ll just say good night
[01:51.082]And I’ll show myself to the door
[01:55.880]Hey, I didn’t mean
[01:58.001]To cause a big scene
[02:00.137]Just give me an hour and then
[02:04.422]Well, I’ll be as high
[02:06.568]As that ivory tower
[02:10.284]That you’re living in
[02:13.481]
[02:14.024]Cause I’ve got friends in low places
[02:17.489]Where the whiskey drowns
[02:19.890]And the beer chases my blues away
[02:25.766]And I’ll be okay
[02:31.357]I’m not big on social graces
[02:35.377]Think I’ll slip on down to the oasis
[02:39.668]Cause I’ve got friends in low places
[02:48.716]
[02:49.246]Yeah, I’ve got friends in low places
[02:52.979]Where the whiskey drowns
[02:55.365]And the beer chases my blues away
[03:01.222]And I’ll be okay
[03:06.820]I’m not big on social graces
[03:10.853]Think I’ll slip on down to the oasis
[03:15.393]Cause I’ve got friends in low places
[03:22.595]
[03:23.920]Cause I’ve got friends in low places
[03:28.726]Where the whiskey drowns
[03:30.846]And the beer chases my blues away
[03:36.992]And I’ll be okay
[03:42.310]I’m not big on social graces
[03:46.315]Think I’ll slip on down to the oasis
[03:50.879]Cause I’ve got friends in low places

Blame it all on my roots
I showed up in boots
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 complain”
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
Cause I’ve got friends in low places
(Instrumental)
Well, I guess I was wrong
I just don’t belong
But then, I’ve been there before
Everything’s all right
And 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 an hour and then
Well, I’ll be as high
As that ivory tower
That you’re living 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
Cause I’ve got friends in low places
Yeah, 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
Cause 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
Cause I’ve got friends in low places
