Luyện nghe bài hát You Never Even Call Me By My Name

[spoken] This is a I wrote with John Prine 4 years ago (1972) and we tried to put into one song, everything that had ever been in any of the country and western songs we had ever heard. Tried to put it all into one song. Serves us right. This is what came out:

Well it was all I do to keep from cryin'
Some times it seems so to remain
You're the one who tried to change me
And that is why I will always stay the

But hang around as long as you will let me
I minded standing in the rain
You don't have to call me darlin',
But you never even me by my name

No, you have to call me Freddy Fender
You have to call me Charlie Pride
You don't have to me Merle Haggard anymore
Even though you know you're on my fighting

Chorus- this verse
And I'm gonna hang around as long as you let me
I never minded standing in the rain (when nights are and lonely)
You don't have to call me darlin',
But you never even me by name.

[musical by mouth improv in a Merle Haggard-like tone -no words]

[spoken] I've seen my name, a few in the phone book
[spoken] And on the neon above the bar I used to own
[spoken] And there's only one thing I'm really of was that sucker
You're gonna it when my savior calls me home

[spoken] That's a lot to get into one song. We left out all the good stuff. Dallas, dope, divorce, dead dogs, trains prison Christmas, mothers, farms, and trucks. Mothers, prison, trucks, trains, farms, Christmas, and dead dogs are essential, you can't have a good country song without them things. And with all due respect this song needs mothers, prison, trucks, trains, farms, Christmas and dead dogs and is that it? Whatever it is - also 4 minutes long already (they're going 'when's he gonna end, when's he gonna end in the booth back there') So I'll just tack this verse on the end here-

Ever since the dog died and mama went to
Ain't round this old farm that's been the same
[Spoken] You know when mom broke out Christmas
She drove the getaway laundry truck into a

But I'll hang around as long as you let me
I never minded standing in the
You don't have to me darlin', darlin'
But you never even call me by my
