The Very Best

[Verse 1]
My oh my, It's good to get your call
It's been a lot of years, whatcha been up to at all?
My wife is sweet and my kids are doing fine
How are yours? Is that man treating you right?

[Chorus]
You're always saying I was the very best
Well, honey, I'm tougher than the rest
You left me standin' in the pourin' rain
Well, honey am I the one to blame?

[Verse 2]
How's your ma? It's been a long time
How's her boyfriend doing? Haven't seen him in awhile
Still, the same man got the same ole' truck
Still got that puppy but he's an old dog now

[Chorus]
You're always saying I was the very best
Well, honey, I'm tougher than the rest
You left me standin' in the pourin' rain
Well, honey am I the one to blame?

[Verse 3]
My oh my it's good to get your call
I wish you well goodnight, thank you for the time
Maybe next time you're in town, you can give me a call
You probably won't with all these years gone by

[Chorus]
You're always saying I was the very best
Well, honey, I'm tougher than the rest
You left me standin' in the pourin' rain
Well, honey am I the one to blame?
