歌词

[00:20.06] My daddy left home when I was three
[00:22.08] And he didn't leave much to ma and me
[00:23.89] Just this old guitar and an empty bottle of booze.
[00:29.14] Now' I don't blame him cause he run and hid
[00:31.33] But the meanest thing that he ever did
[00:33.51] Was before he left' he went and named me "Sue."
[00:39.71] Well' he must o' thought that is quite a joke
[00:42.08] And it got a lot of laughs from a' lots of folk'
[00:44.70] It seems I had to fight my whole life through.
[00:49.09] Some gal would giggle and I'd get red
[00:51.53] I tell ya' life ain't easy for a boy named "Sue."
[01:00.99] Well' I grew up quick and I grew up mean'
[01:03.30] My fist got hard and my wits got keen'
[01:05.67] I'd roam from town to town to hide my shame.
[01:10.42] But I made a vow to the moon and stars
[01:12.73] That I'd search the honky-tonks and bars
[01:15.04] And kill that man who gave me that awful name.
[01:19.61] Well' it was Gatlinburg in mid-July
[01:21.04] And I just hit town and my throat was dry'
[01:24.86] I thought I'd stop and have myself a brew.
[01:29.23] At an old saloon on a street of mud'
[01:31.42] There at a table' dealing stud'
[01:33.98] Sat the dirty' mangy dog that named me "Sue."
[01:38.54] Well' I knew that snake was my own sweet dad
[01:41.04] From a worn-out picture that my mother'd had'
[01:43.23] And I knew that scar on his cheek and his evil eye.
[01:47.92] He was big and bent and gray and old'
[01:50.29] And I looked at him and my blood ran cold
[01:52.67] And I said: "My name is 'Sue!' How do you do!
[01:57.67] Now your gonna die!!"
[02:02.29] Well' I hit him hard right between the eyes
[02:06.79] And he went down' but to my surprise'
[02:09.54] He come up with a knife and cut off a piece of my ear.
[02:13.85] But I busted a chair right across his teeth
[02:16.10] And we crashed through the wall and into the street
[02:18.54] Kicking and a' gouging in the mud and the blood and the beer.
[02:23.42] I tell ya' I've fought tougher men
[02:25.29] But I really can't remember when'
[02:27.85] He kicked like a mule and he bit like a crocodile.
[02:32.66] I heard him laugh and then I heard him cuss'
[02:35.12] He went for his gun and I pulled mine first'
[02:37.80] He stood there lookin' at me and I saw him smile.
[02:41.27] And he said: "Son' this world is rough
[02:44.77] And if a man's gonna make it' he's gotta be tough
[02:47.15] And I knew I wouldn't be there to help ya along.
[02:51.60] So I give ya that name and I said goodbye
[02:54.16] I knew you'd have get to tough or die
[02:56.56] And it's the name that helped to make you strong."
[03:02.44] He said: "Now you just fought one hell of a fight
[03:04.94] And I know you hate me' and you got the right
[03:07.37] To kill me now' and I wouldn't blame you if you do.
[03:11.87] But ya ought to thank me' before I die'
[03:14.43] For the gravel in ya guts and the spit in ya eye
[03:16.93] Cause I'm the son-of-a-bitch that named you "Sue.'"
[03:21.62]
[03:25.01] I got all choked up and I threw down my gun
[03:27.52] And I called him my pa' and he called me his son'
[03:29.69] And I came away with a different point of view.
[03:34.38] And I think about him' now and then'
[03:36.70] Every time I try and every time I win'
[03:39.45] And if I ever have a son' I think I'm gonna name him
