Masters [00:05.56]My daddy left home [00:06.75]When I was three [00:07.66]And he didn't leave [00:08.47]Much to ma and me [00:10.29]Just this old guitar and [00:11.79]An empty bottle of booze. [00:13.13] [00:15.14]Now' I don't blame [00:15.89]Him cause he run and hid [00:16.98] [00:17.55]But the meanest thing [00:18.41]That he ever did [00:19.32] [00:19.90]Was before he left' he [00:21.34]Went and named me Sue [00:23.20] [00:25.96]Well' he must o' thought [00:27.08]That is quite a joke [00:28.22]And it got a lot of laughs [00:29.72]From a' lots of folk' [00:30.97]It seems I had to fight [00:32.17]My whole life through. [00:34.09] [00:35.45]Some gal would giggle [00:36.47]And I'd get red [00:38.14]And some guy'd laugh [00:39.00]And I'd bust his head [00:40.25]I tell ya' life ain't easy [00:41.87]For a boy named Sue [00:43.83] [00:47.63]Well' I grew up quick [00:48.56]And I grew up mean' [00:50.04]My fist got hard and [00:51.23]My wits got keen' [00:52.79]I'd roam from town to [00:53.70]Town to hide my shame. [00:55.93] [00:57.14]But I made a vow to [00:58.02]The moon and stars [00:59.59]That I'd search the [01:00.47]Honky-tonks and bars [01:01.94]And kill that man who [01:03.42]Gave me that awful name. [01:05.15] [01:06.72]Well' it was Gatlinburg [01:07.84]In mid-July [01:09.04]And I just hit town [01:10.31]And my throat was dry' [01:11.92]I thought I'd stop [01:12.67]And have myself a brew. [01:15.02] [01:16.48]At an old saloon [01:17.38]On a street of mud [01:18.66]There at a table dealing stud [01:21.39]Sat the dirty' mangy dog [01:23.07]That named me "Sue." [01:24.63] [01:26.10]Well' I knew that snake [01:27.11]Was my own sweet dad [01:28.49]From a worn-out picture [01:29.38]That my mother'd had' [01:30.97]And I knew that scar on [01:32.39]His cheek and his evil eye. [01:34.37] [01:35.61]He was big and bent [01:36.69]And gray and old' [01:37.82]And I looked at him [01:38.96]And my blood ran cold [01:40.55]And I said: My name is Sue! [01:42.98]How do you do! [01:44.19] [01:45.13]Now your gonna die [01:46.45] [01:52.55]Well' I hit him hard [01:53.53]Right between the eyes [01:54.77]And he went down [01:55.94]But to my surprise [01:57.24]He come up with a knife [01:58.49]And cut off a [01:59.15]Piece of my ear. [02:00.30] [02:02.10]But I busted a chair [02:03.14]Right across his teeth [02:04.24]And we crashed through [02:04.94]The wall and into the street [02:07.23]Kicking and a' gouging in [02:08.14]The mud and the blood [02:09.28]And the beer. [02:10.08] [02:11.77]I tell ya' I've [02:12.48]Fought tougher men [02:13.84]But I really can't [02:14.96]Remember when' [02:16.58]He kicked like a mule [02:17.75]And he bit like a crocodile. [02:19.79] [02:21.23]I heard him laugh [02:22.28]And then I heard him cuss [02:23.88]He went for his gun [02:24.86]And I pulled mine first [02:25.92]He stood there lookin [02:27.05]At me and I saw him smile. [02:29.39] [02:29.99]And he said Son' this [02:32.11]World is rough [02:33.33]And if a man's gonna [02:34.22]Make it' he's gotta be tough [02:36.02]And I knew I wouldn't be [02:37.37]There to help ya along. [02:38.80] [02:40.33]So I give ya that name [02:41.61]And I said goodbye [02:42.87]I knew you'd have [02:43.80]To get tough or die [02:45.53]And it's the name that [02:46.70]Helped to make you strong. [02:48.48] [02:50.00]He said: "Now you just [02:52.13]Fought one hell of a fight [02:53.51]And I know you hate me [02:54.82]And you got the right [02:56.33]To kill me now and I wouldn't [02:57.59]Blame you if you do. [02:59.20] [03:00.95]But ya ought to thank me [03:01.95]Before I die' [03:03.38]For the gravel in ya guts [03:04.36]And the spit in ya eye [03:06.00]Cause I'm the son-of-a-bitch [03:06.87]That named you "Sue.'" [03:09.13] [03:12.10]I got all choked up [03:12.84]And I threw down my gun [03:14.11]And I called him my pa [03:15.39]And he called me his son [03:16.68]And I came away with [03:17.73]A different point of view. [03:19.41] [03:21.45]And I think about him [03:22.67]Now and then [03:23.92]Every time I try [03:25.02]And every time I win' [03:26.43]And if I ever have a son [03:28.51]I think I'm gonna name him
