Things I’m Going Through

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I was sittin' at home, all alone, when the phone rang My old man on the line, sayin' "What's up, son? Tell me some new things" I didn't have the heart to tell him she was gone, gone, gone So I just lied, said "Pop, here's what's going on, on, on" [Chorus] I'm goin' twenty-five down a backroad Just burnin' gas, you know how that goes With a cross breeze cross me Dog up in the front seat Talkin' anything but the truth Got Shelton on the station, playin' "Kiss My Ass" God damn, thinkin' I ain't doin' too bad From his point of view, this green grass country side And a fresh can of chew Are the only things I'm goin' through [Verse 2] I could tell him I've been drinkin', that she ain't around no more But he'd take a two hour ride in his '95 Ford I told him she was gone for the weekend Yeah, it's easier than tellin' him I've gone off the deep end, so [Chorus] I'm goin' twenty-five down a backroad Just burnin' gas, you know how that goes With a cross breeze cross me Dog up in the front seat Talkin' anything but the truth Got Shelton on the station, playin' "Kiss My Ass" God damn, thinkin' I ain't doin' too bad From his point of view, this green grass country side And a fresh can of chew Are the only things I'm goin' through [Bridge] Goin' through these bottles Goin' through this pain Ran through half a pack sittin' round today Since you've been gone I've been to hell and back All I can tell him is that [Chorus] I'm goin' twenty-five down a backroad Just burnin' gas, you know how that goes With a cross breeze cross me Dog up in the front seat Talkin' anything but the truth Got Shelton on the station, playin' "Kiss My Ass" God damn, thinkin' I ain't doin' too bad From his point of view, this green grass country side And a fresh can of chew Are the only things I'm goin' through
