When Somebody Knows You That Well

Johnny's daddy kept a six pack
In the fridge
We thought we were old enough
To do what daddys did
Didn't take us long to go
From drunk to really sick
When I walked in my house
I stumbled just a bit
You play it cool but it's no use
Dad ain't no fool and that's the truth
Chewing gum won't cover
Up that smell
You can't hide one single thought
If you try you'll just get caught
When somebody knows you that well
We lost daddy in 1999
I took care of everybody's pain
Except for mine
Then one night my wife
Took my face in her hands
She said, 'I think it's time
You cry for your old man.'
You play it cool but it's no use
She ain't no fool and that's the truth
And my teardrops finally fell
You can't hide one single thought
If you try you'll just get caught
When somebody knows you that well
I could probably do more
To help my fellow man
But life gets busy
And I hope God understands
Someday when I get time
I'll do more than my share
Funny how I'm thinking this
Sitting in my easy chair
You play it cool but it's no use
God ain't no fool and that's the truth
And he won't let you fool yourself
You can't hide one single thought
If you try you'll just get caught
When somebody knows you that well
When somebody knows you that well
