Don't tell me the reason that you're calling

Is to see if I'm all right since you've been gone

'Cause I know you and I know why we're talking

You're wanting me to say I'm barely hanging on

Well maybe that was true for a night or two

But now I got better things to do

I could wash my car in the rain

Change my new guitar strings

Mow the yard just the same as I did yesterday

I don't need to waste my time crying over you

I got better things to do

Maybe when I don't have so much going

Or quite so many irons in the fire

I'll take the time to miss you like you're hoping

But now I can't put forth the effort it requires

Well I'd love to talk to you but then I'd miss donahue

That's right I got better things to do

I could wash my car in the rain

Change my new guitar strings

Mow the yard just the same as I did yesterday

I don't need to waste my time crying over you

I got better things to do

Check the air in my tires

Straighten my stereo wires

Count the stars in the sky or just get on with my life

I don't need to waste my time crying over you

I got better things to do

I got better things to do
