Don't tell me the reason that you're calling Is to see if i'm alright 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 Chorus: 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 Repeat chorus 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
