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
