Still Picks Up

I got a lot on my mind

I got a lot on my plate

And it's all my fault

I don't make a lot of time these days

'Tween the running and the gunning

Always seems to be something that's stopping me

From calling back home 'cause I know that phone

Ain't always gonna ring

I'm gonna call him while he still picks up

Gonna ask 'em if he ever killed that buck

We saw last fall on Hoover Mason Road

Did he keep that truck or did he let it go?

Did he catch a fish and did he catch the game?

Is he praying for sun or is he praying for rain?

We can talk all day or we ain't gotta say much

But I'm gonna call him while he still picks up

♪

He's gonna ask about her

I'm gonna have to let him know

I'm gonna have to hear him say

"Well, that's the way love goes"

We'll laugh for a while, swear I could hear him smile

On the other end of the line

I'll say "I gotta go", I'll say I won't

Wait so long next time

I'm gonna call him while he still picks up

Gonna ask 'em if he ever killed that buck

We saw last fall on Hoover Mason Road

But I'm gonna call him while he still picks up

Yeah, one of these days he ain't gonna say hello

So tell me and I'm gonna go

Yeah, I'm gonna call him while he still picks up
