C G
It was all that I could do

to keep from cry- [C]in'

Some- [F]times it seems so useless to re- [C]main
F C
You don't have to call me darlin', darlin'

You never even [G]call me by my [C]name.
C G C
You don't have to call me Waylon Jennings

[C]And you don't have to [G]call me Charlie [C]Pride.

[F]You don't have to call me Merle Ha-[C] ggard, any- [Ammore.

E-[D]ven though your on my fightin' [G]side.

CHORUS

And I'll [F]hang around as long as you will [C]let me

And I never minded [G]standin' in the rain.

[F]You don't have to call me darlin', [C]darlin'
G C
You never even [G]call me by my [C]name.

I've heard my name a few times in your phone book,
I've seen it on signs where I've laid,
But the only time I know, I'll hear David Allan Coe,
Is when Jesus has his final judgement day.
CHORUS:
(enter now the Steve Goodman story. The first half is played with a background of C and G. Just before Steve writes back with the perfect Country andWestern song, it is just a straight background C chord.

Well, I was drunk the day my Mom got outta prison.
And I went to pick her up in the rain.
But, before I could get to the station in my pickup truck
She got runned over by a d___ed old train.
CHORUS:

So I'll hang around as long as you will let me
And I never minded standin' in the rain.
No,You don't have to call me darlin', darlin'

[C]You never even [G]call me, I won-[F]der why you don't [C]call me

Why [F]don't you ever [C]call me by my [G]name. [C] [F] [C]
