You Don't Even Call Me By My Name
By: DAVID ALLAN COE
C G C
It was all that I could do to keep from cryin'
F C
Sometimes it seems so useless to remain
F C
You don't have to call me darlin', darlin'
G C
You never even call me by my name.
C G C
You don't have to call me Waylon Jennings
C G C
And you don't have to call me Charlie Pride.
F C Am
You don't have to call me Merle Haggard, anymore.
D G
Even though your on my fightin' side.
CHORUS
F C
And I'll hang around as long as you will let me
C G C
And I never minded standin' in the rain.
F C
You don't have to call me darlin', darlin'
G C G
You never even call me by my name.
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...
Then: the spoken part below has this played in the background:
(the numbers are complete bars)
C-2 G-4 C-2 G-2 C-1 G-1 and then C to finish out the rest.
Well, a friend of mine named Steve Goodman wrote that song (Texts of songs ) And he told me it was the perfect country and western song (Texts of songs ) I wrote him back a letter and told him it was NOT the perfect
Country and western song (Texts of songs ) because he hadn't said anything about
Momma, or trains, or trucks, or prison, or gettin' drunk.
Well, he sat down and wrote another verse to the song (Texts of songs ) and he sent
It to me and after reading it, I realized that my friend had written
The perfect country and western song (Texts of songs ). And I felt obliged to include it
On this album. The last verse goes like this here:
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'
C G C F
You never even call me, I wonder why you don't call me
C G F C F C
Why don't you ever call me by my name.
