Butt Dial Me
Music and Lyrics ©2018 Thomas B. Hedrick / Tom Hedrick Music - ASCAP

If you’re feeling down and lonely,
sick and tired or homely: Butt dial me.
If an accidental ring to me
is sort of like a giving tree: Butt dial me.

Just sit on your phone.
I will be at home.

If the world has got you down,
and you wonder who’s around: Butt dial me.
If your contact list’s a source of bliss,
I hope I’m one you won’t dismiss: Butt dial me.

Hit the crazy key.
You can talk to me.

(Guitar solo)

(Spoken:)
It’s not a laughing matter, no - not just idle chatter
Sit on down and roll that rump, your mobile phone will buzz and jump.
There’s no shame in a random dial, I’m only here to make you smile.
Count on me!

If you think you’re on a mental edge,
I hope a greeting you won’t hedge: Butt dial me.
If you think that you’re about to break,
All it takes is just a shake: Butt dial me.

Just sit on your phone. Yeah!
I will be at home… Right on!…OR ANYWHERE, Really!

(Spoken:)
If you think it random chance, consider this just once perhaps.
You saved my number for a cause, there’s no reason you should pause.
The light speed of the Internet right to my ears is where you’re sent.
Your peace and comfort you might say,
Is just a hiney cheek away.
YEAH! Butt dial me!
Butt dial me! - Oh!
Butt dial me! - That’s right!
Butt dial me!
