Friends in Low Places Songtext
von Garth Brooks

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 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
Oh, I've got friends in low places

Well, 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
Just give me an hour and then

Well, I'll be as high
As that ivory tower
That you′re livin′ 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
Oh, I′ve got friends in low places


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
Oh, I've got friends in low places

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
Oh, I′ve got friends in low places

I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns
And the beer chases my blues away
And I'll be okay
