Take That Call

You told your old man;

You'd hit the lake some other time;

Too much on your plate to bait a hook;

And watch that line;

You put a rain check in his hand;

Said, next week, man;

But he's your dad;

So why, why, why can't you answer?

He sits by his phone;

Hoping you'll answer;

Staring at that screen;

Hoping your name comes through;

He's just waiting on you;

If you got a chance;

Take it while you still got a chance;

If you got love right there, don't let it slip through your hands;

If you're gonna love somebody, hold him as close as you can;

Till you can't, so take that call from your old man;

Even if it's just for a minute;

Cause one day you'll want that call back and you can't get it;

Don't wait on tomorrow, man;

Tomorrow ain't promised;

Say what you need to say now;

Ooh, yeah;

Ooh, yeah;

Ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah;

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh;
