Pick Me Up

[Intro]
La-la, la-la, la-la-la
La-la, la-la, la-la-la

[Verse 1]
I drove all the way across this town
Don't remember a single sign
No idea what was playing on the radio
Or exactly how much time had passed
And now I gotta stop for gas

[Verse 2]
While I filled my tank, I cursed his name
Hid my eyes under your old hat
Yeah, nothing’s worked, my heart's still hurt
Three rings, hello
And my voice cracked

[Chorus]
I'm not waiting after school
’Cause work kept you back a little late
I'm not scraping both my knees
Or pretending to be asleep
I'm not stranded at a party
Stuck because I drank too much
This is a different kind of need you
Yeah, daddy, could you please come pick me up?

[Post-Chorus]
La-la, la-la, la-la-la
La-la, la-la, la-la-la

[Verse 3]
Yeah, times like these all I really need
Is something to bring me home
Just talk me down, remind me how
To stay that little girl you know
I'm trying, I'm trying

[Chorus]
I'm not waiting after school
'Cause work kept you back a little late
I'm not scraping both my knees
Or pretending to be asleep
I’m not stranded at a party
Stuck because I drank too much
This is a different kind of need you
Yeah, daddy, could you please come pick me up?

[Post-Chorus]
La-la, la-la, la-la-la
La-la, la-la, la-la-la

[Bridge]
Three rings, hello
And my voice cracked

[Chorus]
I’m not waiting after school
'Cause work kept you back a little late
I’m not scraping both my knees
Or pretending to be asleep
I'm not stranded at a party
Stuck because I drank too much
This is a different kind of need you
Yeah, daddy, could you please come pick me up?

[Post-Chorus]
La-la, la-la, la-la-la
La-la, la-la, la-la-la

[Outro]
This is a different kind of need you
Yeah, daddy, could you please come pick me up?
