I’m a half-hearted deviant, raised from the bottom line
My friends and I are misanthropes and we are just killing time
They say that the night is wild, reckless and young
Keith and I are raising hell before they make us run
I know damn well that this might be my last chance
I know damn well that I put too much faith in, summertime romances
I’ve got friends in low places
I've got friends in low places
We jumped into the car and then we took to the streets
A gang of third degree refugees denying to come clean
United to be divided, we stand against the world
Black-cat-Unlucky and happily Disturbed
I know damn well that the high road, will never be free
I know damn well that all my enemies are, better men than me
I’ve got friends in low places
I've got friends in low places
We walk up the steps, and into the house
First thing I notice is some girl’s blouse
Cut off sleeves, ripped to shreds
Said “doing whatever I want instead”
We move through the rooms, checking out
All the neon and blacklight shadows of doubt
I caught a glimpse of a ghost I knew
Sometime around Two thousand and two
Said “Bleed if you want. Believe if you need”
And “that girl in the cut-off is such a tease”
All the sad prophets of the modern age
Traded their verses in the penny arcades
Tearing bible pages, rolling em into joints
Fists in the air so God will get the point
Wearing my heart of my sleeve
Aint doing no good for me
Wearing these scars like stripes
For losing myself time after time
The Scoundrels from the East side
Burning out tonight on one last ride
The Scoundrels from the East side
Burning out tonight on one last ride
The Scoundrels from the East side
Burning out tonight on one last ride
