I Don't Call

Got home kicked off my boots
I'm getting deja vu
Hanging up the keys
Wonder like if I look like you
You had it all planned out
Three kids and a house by now
All I got is your old six string
Overdraft fees and songs nobody will sing

Man if that telephone rings
Don't wanna pick up and hear you say
"Son how are you doing today"

I don't call
As much as I used to damn if you only knew
Can't bear the thought
Of hearing you walk in the other room so Mamma can't hear you
Damn I'm scared
To show you how far I have fallen apart
Rather let you be so you could be proud of me from afar
So I don't call
As much as I used to
No I don't call
As much as I used to

I'm afraid you'll say it's time to move on
Pack up my things and come home
Yeah those teenage dreams
Never should've left those twin size spiderman sheets
So if that telephone rings
Don't want to pick up and have to say
"I ain't gonna make it to Thanksgiving today"

I don't call
As much as I used to damn if you only knew
Can't bear the thought
Of hearing you walk in the other room so Mamma can't hear you
Damn I'm scared
To show you how far I have fallen apart
Rather let you be so you could be proud of me from afar
So I don't call
As much as I used to
No I don't call
As much as I used to

Damn I wanna make you proud
Before I lose you
But I can't seem to figure out how

I don't call
As much as I used to damn if you only knew
Can't bear the thought
Of hearing you walk in the other room so Mamma can't hear you
Damn I'm scared
To show you how far I have fallen apart
Rather let you be so you could be proud of me from afar
So I don't call
As much as I used to
No I don't call
As much as you want me to

Got home kicked off my boots
I'm getting deja vu
Hanging up the keys
Wonder like if I look like you
