It was six in the morning when I made the county line
There's someone I got to talk to, can't get it off my mind
He's just a kid, and he's in a pretty rough spot
Two dimes to make a phone call, that's about all I got
How's my boy today? I know it's been three weeks
But you know how far I've got to go these days to make ends meet
How's your momma now, with her new live in friend?
Oh, how I hate the wounds that never seem mend
You said, "I don't call him daddy, but he takes care of things
When you pick me up on Friday, are you gonna bring me anything
Oh, don't worry dad, you know, it don't matter what we do
'Cause I don't call him daddy, he can never be like you"
ย
God bless the little hearts, they're the ones who really pay
When mom and dad can't get along, and they go their separate ways
In a way, I'm glad there's someone there to fill the empty space
Tears of understanding stream down a dirty face
You said, "I don't call him daddy, but he takes care of things
When you pick me up on Friday, are you gonna bring me anything?
Oh, don't worry dad, you know, it don't matter what we do
'Cause I don't call him daddy he can never be like you"
Be like you
Be like you
ย
He's quite a little man, growing up as fast as he can
And I don't get to see him half as much as I had planned
There's so much I need to tell him, so precious little time
A little rain on the window and a little wave goodbye
You said, "I don't call him daddy, but he takes care of things
When you pick me up on Friday, are you gonna bring me anything?
Oh, don't worry dad, you know, it don't matter what we do
'Cause I don't call him daddy, he can never be like you"
You said, "I don't call him daddy, but he takes care of things
When you pick me up on Friday, are you gonna bring me anything?
Oh, don't worry dad, you know, it don't matter what we do
'Cause I don't call him daddy, he can never be like you"
Oh-oh I don't call him daddy
