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
Write on the cross at the head of my grave
‘For women and whiskey, here lies a poor slave
Take warning, dear stranger, take warning, dear friend’
Then write in big letters these words at the end
Cigarettes, whiskey and wild, wild women
They’ll drive you crazy, they’ll drive you insane
Cigarettes, whiskey and wild wild women
They’ll drive you crazy, they’ll drive you insane
Buck Owens, et al - Cigarettes, Whiskey and Wild, Wild Women
Friday night they’ll be dressed to kill
Down at Dino’s Bar ‘n’ Grill
The drink will flow and the blood will spill
And if the boys want to fight, you better let 'em
And the man in the back said everyone attack
And it turned into a ballroom blitz
And the girl in the corner said boy I want to warn you
It’ll turn into a ballroom blitz
I’m tired
Sick and tired of love
I’ve had my fill of love
From below and above
Tired, tired of being admired
Tired of love uninspired
Let’s face it
I’m tired
I’m so tired of love songs, tired of love songs
Tired of love songs, tired of love
Just wanna go home, wanna go home
Wanna go home, whoa
So tired of love songs, tired of love songs
Tired of love songs, tired of love
Just wanna go home, wanna go home
Wanna go home, whoa
p.s.
All the tired horses in the sun
How am I supposed to get any riding done?
All the tired horses in the sun
How am I supposed to get any riding done?
I’m an old cowhand from the Rio Grande
But my legs ain’t bowed and my cheeks ain’t tan
Well I’m a cowboy who never saw a cow
Never roped a steer ‘cause I don’t know how
And I sure ain’t fixin’ to startin’ now
Yippee-i-o-ki-ay, hey yippee-i-o-ki-ay
Never heard the whistle of a southbound freight,
Or the singing of it’s driving wheel,
No I, never did not wanderin’
Never did not wanderin’
Never did not wanderin’ after all.
I want to find the secret path
A bird delivered into my heart, so
It’s not the end
Not the kingdom come
It is the journey that matters, the distant wanderer
Call of the wild
In me forever and ever and ever forever
Wanderlust
I was born in a cross-fire hurricane.
And I howled at the morning driving rain.
But it’s all right now, in fact, it’s a gas.
But it’s all right. I’m Jumpin’ Jack Flash,
It’s a gas, gas, gas.
In the early mornin’ rain
With a dollar in my hand
With an aching in my heart
And my pockets full of sand
I’m a long ways from home
And I missed my loved one so
In the early mornin’ rain
With no place to go
When you’ve got friends and neighbours
All the world is a happier place
Friends and neighbours
Put a smile on the gloomiest face
Just take your little troubles and share 'em
With the folks next door
Make’s it twice as easy to bear 'em
That’s what friends are for
