Things I'm Going Through Songtext
von Travis Denning

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"

I′m goin' 25 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"
Goddamn, thinkin' I ain′t doin' too bad
From his point of view, this green grass countryside
And a fresh can of chew
Are the only things I'm goin′ through

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


I'm goin′ 25 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"
Goddamn, thinkin' I ain′t doin' too bad
From his point of view, this green grass countryside
And a fresh can of chew
Are the only things I′m goin' through

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

I′m goin' 25 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"
Goddamn, thinkin′ I ain′t doin' too bad
From his point of view, this green grass countryside
And a fresh can of chew
Are the only things I′m goin' through
