Cop got me doing 88 on Main he let me off with a warning
And I was hungover as hell most of them Third-pew Sunday mornings
I had a Playboy stashed in a Johnny Cash LP sleeve in my room
That's just a few things I never told you
I kept a well-hid can of Skoal in the console of my Chevy
Got a real good education skippin' school in the backseat on that levy
If you'd caught wind of half my sins you woulda whipped my ass through and through
Back then if you knew things I never told you
I wouldn't be half the man I am if you hadn't loved this boy
I've never said it until now, but I always heard your voice
Cuttin' through that loud rock 'n' roll, every fork in the road
Underneath the dirt I've never shown you
"Thank you's" at the top of my list of things I never told you
When I moved away from home, I didn't realize how much I'd miss ya
A phone call don't take the place of your smilin' face cookin' in that kitchen
You're the reason all my angels and my demons finally called a truce
Yeah, that's just a few things I never told you
I wouldn't be half the man I am if you hadn't loved this boy
I've never said it until now, but I always heard your voice
Cuttin' through that loud rock 'n' roll, every fork in the road
Underneath the dirt I've never shown you
