I thought about calling you today
I was head to toe in grease and dirt
Cussin' that Chevrolet
I think I busted two damn knuckles
'Fore I fixed that timing chain
I thought about calling you today

I thought about calling you last week
'Bout to lose my mind at half time
'Cause the tide was down by three
We pulled it off six seconds left
Despite of that referee
I thought about calling you last week

I hate you know me better than I'll ever know myself
I've always known where I could go when I couldn't go nowhere else
So I try to tell me all the things I know that you would say
'Cause I'da heard 'em all by now if you weren't in a better place

I thought about calling you that night
Remember the one you said wasn't the one?
Turns out you were right
I never knew that kinda lone
Till she left that ring behind
I thought about calling you that night

I hate you know me better than I'll ever know myself
I've always known where I could go when I couldn't go nowhere else
So I try to tell me all the things I know that you would say
'Cause I'da heard 'em all by now if you weren't in a better place
Yeah

I still talk to God every time I pray
And I still talk to you, but dad, it just ain't the same
So I try to tell me all the things I know that you would say
I thought about calling you today
