Got a call from a friend about a friend It's news no one ever wants to hear It hit me like a punch, it took my breath He was just getting into his best years Yeah, something like that'll shake you up Wake you up So I stopped off at a Texaco Bought a Slim Jim and a Coke Parked out by the water just to watch that river flow Grabbed my guitar from the back seat Wrote a song just for me And I sung it for the blue sky And a couple live oak trees I thought of home, grabbed my phone from my pocket And I called mama It rang a couple times and she picked up I can always hear her smile when I call I just called to tell you that I loved you I was missin' you and dad, and home, that's all I got to really thinkin' this mornin' 'Bout what's important So I stopped off at a Texaco Bought a Slim Jim and a Coke Parked out by the water just to watch that river flow Grabbed my guitar from the back seat Wrote a song just for me And I sung it for the blue sky And a couple live oak trees I thought of home, grabbed my phone from my pocket And I called mama And from now on I ain't gonna wait so long To stop off at a Texaco Buy a Slim Jim and a Coke Park out by the water just to watch that river flow Grab my guitar from the back seat Write a song just for me I'll sing it for the blue sky And a couple live oak trees And think of home, grab my phone from my pocket Instead of saying tomorrow I'm gonna And I call mama And I call mama
