作词 : Goodman | |
It was all that I could do to keep from cryin' | |
Sometimes it seems so useless to remain | |
You don't have to call me darlin', darlin' | |
You never even call me by my name. | |
You don't have to call me Waylon Jennings | |
And you don't have to call me Charlie Pride. | |
You don't have to call me Merle Haggard, anymore. | |
Even though your on my fightin' side. | |
CHORUS | |
And I'll hang around as long as you will let me | |
And I never minded standin' in the rain. | |
You don't have to call me darlin', darlin' | |
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... | |
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 and western song 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 and he sent | |
it to me and after reading it, I realized that my friend had written | |
the perfect country and 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 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' | |
You never even call me, I wonder why you don't call me | |
Why don't you ever call me by my name. |
