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

[spoken] This is a song 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 heard. Tried to put it all into one song. Serves us right. This is what came out:

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

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

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

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

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

[spoken] seen my name, a few times in the phone book
[spoken] And on the neon sign above the bar I to own
[spoken] And there's one thing I'm really sure of was that sucker
You're hear 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 - it's also 4 minutes long already (they're going 'when's he end, when's he gonna end in the booth back there') So I'll just tack this verse on the end here-

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

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