Dad's Old Number

I'm sorry man, don't hang up, no I ain't sellin' nothin'

I don't know what I was thinkin' when I called, I guess I wasn't

Yeah I was just down on my luck

Having some trouble with this old truck

And the guy that used to pick up, he could fix anything

Sometimes I forget these ten digits ain't my lifeline anymore

Every now and then I dial 'em up when

Life gets tough or when I brave storms

Sorry 'bout the one ring hang ups, early morning, late night wake ups

It was just me, in case you wondered, you've got dad's old number

♪

I learned it by heart when I was six, he never did change it

I've called it in trouble with good and

Bad news and break ups, yeah you name it

Sure I've got some friends I can call

And they're always there if I need to talk

But good as they are it ain't their fault, sometimes I just need him

And sometimes I forget these ten digits ain't my lifeline anymore

Every now and then I dial 'em up when

Life gets tough or when I brave storms

Sorry 'bout the one ring hang ups, early morning, late night wake ups

It was just me, in case you wondered, you've got dad's old number

So I apologize in advance

'Cause there's a damn good chance

When I meet that girl, get that job

And I need to tell my best friend

You're probably gonna hear from me again

'Cause sometimes I forget these ten digits ain't my lifeline anymore

Every now and then I dial 'em up when

Life gets tough or when I brave storms

Sorry 'bout the one ring hang ups, early morning, late night wake ups

It was just me,

In case you wondered, yeah, you've got dad's old number
