Operator
   Get my baby on the line
   Just the other night
   We had a horrible fight
   I admit that I
   I was out of control
   But I still love my man
   With my body and soul
   When the road gets rough
   You say things you should not say
   I never meant
   To treat my baby that way
  
   ~chorus~
   I apologize
   Oh, believe me I do
   I apologize
   Honest and true
   Because I know I was wrong
   So I sing you this song
   And I'm tryin' to get through
   To make it up to you, yeah
  
   Operator
   It was like a bad dream
   Lord, you should have heard
   The way he shouted and the way that I screamed
   I regret it cause I was unfair
   I took it all out on him
   Just because he was there
   When the road gets rough
   You say things you should not say
   I never meant to treat my daddy that way
  
   ~repeat chorus~
  
   I apologize
   'Cause I was unkind
   And I wish that I could go back in time
   Erase our goodbyes
   It's eating at my heart
   But come rain or come shine
   I'm gonna do it right this time
   I apologize
