Lyrics You Never Even Called Me by My Name

Well it was all that I could do to keep from crying

Sometimes it seems so useless to remain

But you don't have to call me darlin' darlin'

You never even called me by my name

You don't have to call me

Waylon Jennings

And you don't have to call me

Charlie Pride

And you don't have to call me

Merle Haggard anymore

Or even though you're on my fightin' side

And I'll hang around as long as you will let me

And I never minded standin' in the rain

But you don't have to call me darlin' darlin'

You never even called me by my name

Well I've heard my name a few times in your phone book

And I've seen it on signs where I've played

But the only time I know

I'll hear David Allan Coe

Is when Jesus has his final

Judgment Day

And I'll hang around as long as you will let me

And I never minded standin' in the rain

But you don't have to call me darlin' darlin'

You never even called me by my name

Well a friend of mine named Steve Goodman wrote that song

And he told me it was the perfect country and western song

I wrote him back a letter and told him it was not the perfect country western song

Because he hadn't said anything at all about momma or trains, or trucks, or prison or gettin' drunk

Well he sat down and wrote another verse to this song and he sent it to me

And after reading it

I realized that my friend had written the perfect country western song

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 out of prison

And I went to pick her up in the rain

But before I could get to the station in the pick-up truck

She got runned over by a damned old train

And I'll hang around as long as you will let me

And I never minded standin' in the rain, oh

And you don't have to call me darlin' darlin'

You never even called me but l wonder why you don't call me

Why you don't ever call me by my name?
