She'll wonder where he's been"

This isn't included on the album version.

Yea, we're two of a kind
Workin' on a full house"

10. Finally, there's the all time classic..."Blame it all on my roots, I showed up in boots and ruined your black tie affair." Name the song.

Answer: Friends in Low Places

Again, with the mysterious third verses, Garth!
"I guess I was wrong
I just don't belong
But then, I've been there before
And everything is alright
I'll just say goodnight
And I'll show myself to the door
I didn't mean to cause a big scene
Just wait 'til I finish this glass
Then sweet little lady
I'll head back to the bar..."
