[00:06.460]Well my daddy left home when I was three
[00:09.000]And he didn't leave much to ma and me
[00:11.540]Just this old guitar and an empty bottle of booze.
[00:16.000]Now, I don't blame him cause he run and hid
[00:18.420]But the meanest thing that he ever did
[00:20.870]Was before he left, he went and named me "Sue."
[00:26.520]Well, he must o' thought that is quite a joke
[00:28.990]And it got a lot of laughs from a' lots of folk,
[00:31.910]It seems I had to fight my whole life through.
[00:36.250]Some gal would giggle and I'd get red
[00:38.830]And some guy＇d laugh and I＇d bust his head
[00:41.040]I tell ya, life ain't easy for a boy named "Sue."
[00:47.810]Well, I grew up quick and I grew up mean,
[00:50.370]My fist got hard and my wits got keen,
[00:53.000]I'd roam from town to town to hide my shame.
[00:57.280]But I made a vow to the moon and stars
[00:59.910]That I'd search the honky-tonks and bars
[01:02.390]And kill that man who gave me that awful name.
[01:06.380]Well, it was Gatlinburg in mid-July
[01:08.960]And I just hit town and my throat was dry,
[01:11.780]I thought I'd stop and have myself a brew.
[01:15.980]At an old saloon on a street of mud,
[01:18.700]There at a table, dealing stud,
[01:21.040]Sat the dirty, mangy dog that named me "Sue."
[01:25.340]Well, I knew that snake was my own sweet dad
[01:28.030]From a worn-out picture that my mother'd had,
[01:30.520]And I knew that scar on his cheek and his evil eye.
[01:34.750]He was big and bent and gray and old,
[01:37.200]And I looked at him and my blood ran cold
[01:39.670]And I said: "My name is 'Sue!' How do you do!
[01:44.410]Now your gonna die!!"(yeah yeah that's what I told him)
[01:50.710]Well, I hit him hard right between the eyes
[01:53.770]And he went down, but to my surprise,
[01:56.310]He come up with a knife and cut off a piece of my ear.
[02:00.450]But I busted a chair right across his teeth
[02:03.190]And we crashed through the wall and into the street
[02:05.930]Kicking and a' gouging in the mud and the blood and the beer.
[02:10.130]I tell ya, I've fought tougher men
[02:12.460]But I really can't remember when,
[02:14.830]He kicked like a mule and he bit like a crocodile.
[02:19.390]I heard him laugh and then I heard him cuss,
[02:22.230]He went for his gun and I pulled mine first,
[02:24.540]He stood there lookin' at me and I saw him smile.
[02:27.830]And he said: "Son, this world is rough
[02:31.500]And if a man's gonna make it, he's gotta be tough
[02:34.020]And I knew I wouldn't be there to help ya along.
[02:38.300]So I give ya that name and I said goodbye
[02:40.600]I knew you'd have to get tough or die
[02:43.140]And it's the name that helped to make you strong."
[02:48.720]He said: "Now you just fought one hell of a fight
[02:51.570]And I know you hate me, and you got the right
[02:54.230]To kill me now, and I wouldn't blame you if you do.
[02:58.570]But ya ought to thank me, before I die,
[03:01.010]For the gravel in ya guts and the spit in ya eye
[03:04.530]Cause I'm the son-of-a-***** that named you "Sue.'"
[03:11.390]I got all choked up and I threw down my gun
[03:14.040]And I called him my pa, and he called me his son,
[03:16.660]And I came away with a different point of view.
[03:20.690]And I think about him, now and then,
[03:23.440]Every time I try and every time I win,
[03:26.620]And if I ever have a son, I think I'm gonna name him
[03:31.240]Bill or George! Anything but sue! I still hate that name!
