When Somebody Knows You That Well

[Verse 1] Tommy's daddy, kept a six pack in the fridge We thought we were old enough To do what Daddy's did It didn't take us long to go From drunk to really sick When I walked in my house I stumbled just a bit [Chorus] You play it cool But it's no use Dad aren’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 [Verse 2] We lost Daddy In nineteen ninety-nine I took care of everybody's pain Except for mine And then one night My wife took my face in her hands She said, "I think it's time you cry For your old man" [Chorus] You play it cool But it's no use She aren’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 [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus] You play it cool But it's no use God aren’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 [Outro] When somebody knows you that well
