  • Everybody down in Houston calls him Texas
    Everybody way up north calls him cornbread
    You should've heard the way that his mama calls him baby
    Daddy calls him boy, his friends call him crazy

    Shoulda just called it like I saw it
    Shoulda just called for help and ran like hell that day
    The burn and the sting and the high and the heat
    And the left me one more feeling when he kissed me
    I shoulda just called him whiskey

    Warm my body to the core just like a blanket
    It tasted so sweet then you took my breath away
    Hit me so hard like a rock through a window
    I knew I was in trouble from the moment I met you, boy

    Shoulda just called it like I saw it
    Shoulda just called for help and ran like hell that day
    The burn and the sting and the high and the heat
    And the left me one more feeling when he kissed me
    I shoulda just called him whiskey

    Now the numb set in
    He's gone like the wind
    And I can barely feel the pain

    Shoulda just called it like I saw it
    I shoulda just called for help and ran like hell that day
    The burn and the sting and the high and the heat
    And the left me one more feeling when he kissed me

    Oh the burn and the sting and the high and the heat
    And the left me one more feeling when he kissed me
    I shoulda just called him whiskey
    Shoulda just called him whiskey
    I shoulda just called him whiskey Writer/s: CATT GRAVITT, SAM MIZELL
