Well way back in my high school days
I used to have a lot of rowdy friends
Well we've all got good stories
About the troubles that we got in
Well now they're doctors lawyers and engineers
And they've all got a real good life
While I'm playin' for drunks in honky-tonks
I'm lookin' for my next ex-wife
Well I'm the square peg in my circle of friends
They're rock solid and I'm loose ends
I've never been much on a suit and tie
I'm just a blue jeans and boots kind of guy
I never could hold onto the money
They're all rollin' in
I drive a pickup truck
They drive a Mercedes-Benz
And I'm the square peg in my circle of friends
Well I love beer and barbeque
In fairly large amounts
While they love to dine on five-course meals
In places I can't pronounce
They're whole world is stocks and bonds
While I'm covered up in debt
They put they're kids to bed
I'm steppin' out instead
With some young thing that I just met
Well I'm the square peg in my circle of friends
They're rock solid and I'm loose ends
I've never been much on a suit and tie
I'm just a blue jeans and boots kind of guy
I never could hold onto the money
They're all rollin' in
I drive a pickup truck
They drive a Mercedes-Benz
And I'm the square peg in my circle of friends
I'm still a little rough around the edges now
But my friends all treat me good
They all envy me because
I'm doin' what they wish they could
Well I'm the square peg in my circle of friends
They're rock solid and I'm loose ends
I've never been much on a suit and tie
I'm just a blue jeans and boots kind of guy
I never could hold onto the money
They're all rollin' in
I drive a pickup truck
They drive a Mercedes-Benz
And I'm the square peg in my circle of friends
