Wake up make my way down to the lobby
Get a bite to eat and a cup or two of coffee
Read USA Today front to back
Kill most of the morning doing that
Then take that lonely walk back to the room
Watch reruns of a known all afternoon
Things to do in Wichita
So many things, I can't count 'em all
Find a way to bring her back
Find the words to let her know that I've changed
I really have, hit redial on the phone
Leave another message at her moms
Tell her baby you were right and I was wrong
Hope and pray and wait for her to call
I've got things to do in Wichita
Around sundown, now that's when things get tough
Gotta work to keep my strength and courage up
'Cause there's a happy hour in the bar downstairs
She'd be proud to know I ain't set foot in there
Spend my nights trying to be a better man
Reading from that book in my nightstand
Things to do in Wichita
So many things, I can't count 'em all
Find a way to bring her back
Find the words to let her know that I've changed
I really have, hit redial on the phone
Leave another message at her moms
Tell her baby you were right and I was wrong
Hope and pray and wait for her to call
I've got things to do in Wichita
Tell myself to just stay strong
Kill the lights and lay here all alone
Say a prayer that tomorrow she might call
I've got things to do in Wichita
