Mr. Fixer Upper

Remember that one out Jeep you was drivin' made me nervous
1995, three years since you had it serviced
No tread on the tires, but you didn't mind long as it was workin'
Been a little while now and this whiskey got me wonderin'
If it's anything like you, I can bet you it's still runnin'
Oh, nothin' I could do to prevent what was comin'

'Cause when you told me I broke into
And couldn't do what I always do

I could fix a leak, but not you leadin'
I could patch a hole, but you still see it
And I got a thousand tools in this box, but I don't need 'em
I could fix a sink, or a door when it's creakin'
I could have a go at that shelf that's uneven
And I got a thousand screws in this box, but I won't need them
Yeah, yeah, it's so hard to admit it that I'm stuck here wishin' you would call
But some things just can't be fixed at all

Remember back when you used to have to come and get me
Out that damn garage that had always kept me busy
But now the four walls ain't the only thing that's empty

'Cause when you told me I broke into
And couldn't do what I always do

I could fix a leak, but not you leadin'
I could patch a hole, but you still see it
And I got a thousand tools in this box, but I don't need 'em
I could fix a sink, or a door when it's creakin'
I could have a go at that shelf that's uneven
And I got a thousand screws in this box, but I won't need them
Yeah, yeah, it's so hard to admit it that I'm stuck here wishin' you would call
But some things just can't be fixed at all
