歌詞

[Verse 1]
A        A
 Well my daddy left home when
I was three
              D
And he didn't leave much to ma and me
          E
Just this old guitar and an empty bottle of booze.
A
 Now,
I don't blame him cause he run and hid
        D
But the meanest thing that he ever did
      E
Was before he left,
                     A
he went and named me "Sue."

[Verse 2]
Well,
   A
he must o' thought that is quite a joke
       D
And it got a lot of laughs from a' lots of folk,
E                                     A
It seems I had to fight my whole life through.
Some gal would giggle and I'd get red
        D
And some guy'd laugh and I'd bust his head,
       E
I tell ya,
                                A
life ain't easy for a boy named "Sue."

[Verse 3]
Well,
  A
I grew up quick and I grew up mean,
       D
My fist got hard and my wits got keen,
E                                     A
I'd roam from town to town to hide my shame.
But I made a vow to the moon and stars
D
That I'd search the honkytonks and bars
    E
And kill that man who gave me that awful name.

[Verse 4]
A             A
 Well, it was Gatlinburg in midJuly
      D
And I just hit town and my throat was dry,
E                                     A
 I thought I'd stop and have myself a brew.
At an old saloon on a street of mud,
D
There at a table, dealing stud,
E
Sat the dirty,
                        A
mangy dog that named me "Sue."

[Verse 5]
Well,
  A
I knew that snake was my own sweet dad
       D
From a wornout picture that my mother'd had,
      E                                            A
And I knew that scar on his cheek and his evil eye.
He was big and bent and gray and old,
      D
And I looked at him and my blood ran cold
      E
And I said: "My name is 'Sue!
A
How do you do! Now your gonna die!!"

[Verse 6]
Well,
  A
I hit him hard right between the eyes
   D
And he went down, but to my surprise,
E                                                      A
 He come up with a knife and cut off a piece of my ear.
But I busted a chair right across his teeth
       D
And we crashed through the wall and into the street
E
Kicking and a' gouging in the mud and the blood and the
beer.

[Verse 7]
A  A
 I tell ya, I've fought tougher men
      D
But I really can't remember when,
   E                                         A
He kicked like a mule and he bit like a crocodile.
I heard him laugh and then I heard him cuss,
            D
He went for his gun and I pulled mine first,
   E                                             A
He stood there lookin' at me and I saw him smile.

[Verse 8]
                  A
And he said: "Son, this world is rough
       D
And if a man's gonna make it,
he's gotta be tough
      E                                   A
And I knew I wouldn't be there to help ya along.
So I give ya that name and I said goodbye
      D                                        E
I knew you'd have to get tough or die And it's the name
                               A
that helped to make you strong.

[Verse 9]
              A
He said: "Now you just fought one hell of a fight
    D
And I know you hate me,
and you got the right
   E
To kill me now,
                                A
and I wouldn't blame you if you do.
But ya ought to thank me, before I die,
        D
For the gravel in ya guts and the spit in ya eye
      E                                  A
Cause I'm the sonofabitch that named you "Sue.
'"

[Verse 10]
A D
                          E
I got all choked up and I threw down my gun
And I called him my pa,
             A
and he called me his son,
And I came away with a different point of view.
And I think about him, now and then,
      D
Every time I try and every time I win,
E
 And if I ever have a son,
I think I'm gonna name him
                                    A
Bill or George! Anything but Sue! I still hate that name!
