Written by Dickey Lee (As performed by George Jones)
Just because I ask a friend about her Just because I spoke her name somewhere Just because I rang her number by mistake today She thinks I still care
Just because I haunt the same old places Where the mem'ry of her lingers ev'rywhere Just because I'm not the happy guy I used to be She thinks I still care
But if she's happy thinkin' I still need her Then let that silly notion bring her cheer But how could she ever be so foolish Oh where would she get such an idea
Just because I ask a friend about her And just because I spoke her name somewhere Just because I saw her then went all to pieces She thinks I still care She thinks I still care
