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
Maybe that was true for a night or two
But now, I've 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've 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've 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've got better things to do (here we go, woo)

I could check the air in my tires, straighten my stereo wires
Count the stars in the sky, just get on with my life
I don't need to waste my time crying over you
I've got better things to do
I've got better things to do, yeah

Hey, wanna go grab I drink?
I don't have time
