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
(INSTRUMENTAL BREAK)
Well I guess I was wrong
I just don`t belong
But then, I`ve been there before
Everything`s 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 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
EVERYBODY!
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

(Pause)
What?!?!
(Pause)
You guys... already know what`s comin`, don`t ya?
And ya know what... you`re right.
You`re exactly right. What would a Garth Live album
be without the live version of Friends In Low Places?
Because it`s only here where you can find that
mysterious third verse that goes on the end of that
song. But, does anybody know the words to that
verse? That`s what I wanna know.
Well, in that case I think the friends in low places
should sing that third verse.
This outta be good.
Alright, here we go...

I just don`t belong
But then I`ve been there before
Everything`s 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 till I finish this glass
And sweet little lady
I`ll head back to the bar
GIVE IT TO ME!!!
And you can kiss my ass!
