Lyrics of
Thought You Should Know

What's goin' on mama
Something just dawned on me
I ain't been home in some months
Been chasin' songs and women
Making some bad decisions
God knows I'm drinking too much
Yeah, I know you've been worrying 'bout me
You've been losing sleep since '93

I thought you should know that all those prayers you thought you wasted on me
Must've finally made their way on through
I thought you should know I've got me a new girl down there in Jefferson City and
She lets me fish whenever I want to
Yeah, I'm still proud of where I came from
Still your only damn son
Can you believe I'm on the radio
Just thought you should know, thought you should know, thought you should know

Oh, by the way mama
Didn't mean to ramble on ya
How's everything back at home
Yeah, how's that garden coming?
Is Dad still doing dumb shit
How'd he keep you this long
Yeah, I'm sorry that I called you so late
I just miss you but anyway

I thought you should know that all those prayers you thought you wasted on me
Must've finally made their way on through
I thought you should know I've got me a new girl down there in Jefferson City and
She lets me fish whenever I want to
Yeah, I'm still proud of where I came from
Still your only damn son
Can you believe I'm on the radio
Just thought you should know, thought you should know, thought you should know

Yeah, I'm sorry that I called you so late
I just miss you but anyway

I thought you should know that all those prayers you thought you wasted on me
Must've finally made their way on through
I thought you should know I really like this girl down in Jefferson City and
Turns out she's a lot like you
Yeah, I'm still proud of where I came from
Still your only damn son
The bus is leaving so I gotta roll
Just thought you should know, thought you should know, thought you should know
Just thought you should know, thought you should know, thought you should know
Though you should know
