Backbone

Текст песни

I ain’t the type guy to beg a man to pick the phone up, But I called you when the weight was heavy, thought you’d show a little grace You said you were busy, “Hit me in a couple months,” like I was just some random face So I waited, then I called again… and you forgot or was that a lie I texted I’d ride the Harley up, stay a night or two, nothing more, You answered “don’t look good,” and left me starin’ at the floor. Twenty years back you showed up broke and lost from three thousand miles, I opened up my door and my life… now you’re actin’ like it never crossed your mind. Chorus Yeah I’m pissed, and I’m hurt, and I ain’t gonna lie, I would’ve done anything for you, brother, anytime. You stayed three months under my roof, never paid a dime or a word, Now I need a couple days and you can’t even be disturbed. It’s your loss, not mine… I still got a couple true ones left on this hand, But you just proved you never understood what it means to be a friend. I would’ve rode all night for you, no questions, no delay, Now the only thing I’m ridin’ is the anger that you threw it away. Verse 2 I ain’t keepin’ score, but damn it, I remember clear as day, You pulled up unannounced, I cleared the room and told you stay. Fed you, gave you space, never once made you feel small or out of place, Treated you like family ’cause that’s how I was raised. Now the tables turned and you can’t spare a couch or a call, Actin’ like three months of my life didn’t mean anything at all. I would’ve dropped what I was doin’, drove through hell if you were down, Instead you left me hangin … and that cuts deeper than your boy Kevin would allow. Chorus Yeah I’m pissed, and I’m hurt, and I ain’t gonna lie, I would’ve done anything for you, brother, anytime. You stayed three months under my roof, never paid a dime or a word, Now I need a couple days and you can’t even be disturbed. It’s your loss, Drew… I still got a couple true friends left on this hand, But you just proved you never understood what it means to be a friend. I would’ve rode all night for you, no questions, no delay, Now the only thing I’m ridin’ is the anger that you pissed it all away. Bridge I can count my real friends on one hand, and I thought you were one, Guess I was wrong… better to find out now than when I was really in trouble But I ain’t chasin’ nobody to be my friend You had a brother who’d have gone to war for you… then you showed me your true colors. The only person Drew cares about is Drew. So go on and stay busy, keep your calendar tight, I’ll be alright… remember this song if you ever hit a speed bump in your life. Final Chorus Yeah I’m pissed, and I’m hurt, but I see it clear tonight, I've wasted enough time on this song and I'm sure you feel the same. I already forgot your name.
