Busy Doin' Nothin'

I had to fix a lot of things this morning

'Cause they were so scrambled

But now it's okay

I tell you, I've got enough to do

The afternoon was filled up with phone calls

What a hot sticky day, yeah, yeah, yeah

The air is cooling down

Take all the time you need, it's a lovely night

If you decide to come, you're gonna do it right

Drive for a couple miles, you see a sign and turn

Left for a couple blocks, next is mine, you'll turn

Left on a little road, it's a bumpy one

You'll see a white fence, move the gate and drive

Through on the left side, come right in and you'll

Find me in my house somewhere

Keeping busy while I wait

I get a lot of thoughts in the morning

I write 'em all down

If it wasn't for that

I'd forget 'em in a while

And lately, I've been thinking 'bout a good friend

I'd like to see more of

Yeah, yeah, yeah

I think I'll make a call

I wrote a number down, but I lost it

So I searched through my pocketbook, I couldn't find it

So I sat and concentrated on the number and

Slowly it came to me so I dialed it

And I let it ring a few times, there was no answer

So I let it ring a little more, still no answer

So I hung up the telephone, got some paper and

Sharpened up a pencil and

Wrote a letter to my friend
