You Don't Even Call Me By My Name
by: DAVID ALLAN COE
CIt was all that I could Gdo
to keep from crCyin'
sometiFmes it seems so useless to reCmain
FYou don't have to call me darlin',C darlin'
You never even caGll me by my nCame.
YCou don't have tGo call me Waylon JenCnings
ACnd you don't have to cGall me Charlie PrCide.
YFou don't have to call me Merle HaCggard, anAmymore.
EDven though your on my fightin' sGide.
CHORUS
And I'll hFang around as long as you will lCet me
And I never minded staGndin' in the rain.
YFou don't have to call me darlin'C, darlin'
You never even cGall me by my nCame.
I've heard my name a few times in your phone book
I've seen it on signs where I've laid
But the only time I know, I'll hear David Allan Coe
Is when Jesus has his final judgement day.
CHORUS:
(enter now the Steve Goodman story. The first half is played with a background
of C and G. Just before Steve writes back with the perfect Country and
Western song, it is just a straight background C chord.
Well, I was drunk the day my Mom got outta prison.
And I went to pick her up in the rain.
But, before I could get to the station in my pickup truck
She got runned over by a damned old train.
CHORUS:
So I'll hang around as long as you will let me
And I never minded standin' in the rain. No,
You don't have to call me darlin', darlin'
YCou never even cGall me, I woFnder why you don't cCall me
Why dFon't you ever cCall me by my nGame. C F C
