matt cox - high places lyrics

i got friends in high places
it don’t matter where i’ve been
every time i see that rocky skyline
i know i’ve got a real good friend
i feel much better high above sea level
where the air’s so clean and thin
yeah, i got friends in high places
and i know they’ll take me in
i rolled out to denver, colorado
to see an old pal of mine
we spent the weekend high up in the mountains
and lord, she was mighty kind
but, i couldn’t stay long no, i had to get goin’
i was arizona bound
she begged me to come with me
and i could not turn her down
it was shortly before nightfall
we were looking for a place to camp
when the beaver county sheriff p-ssed me by
and i must have had a bum tail lamp
he whipped his car ‘round
and i got the shake down
there on the side of that road
we were twenty miles from zion
when he told me what i owed
he said, i’ll let you keep your license son
it might just be your lucky day
but, before i let you go you know
there’s just one thing that i’ve got to say
i don’t like friends like yours ‘round here
and i don’t care for the hair down over your ears
then he shook my hand
and said, i hope you understand
then stole my mary jane
