Now, I don’t blame him cause he run and hid But the meanest thing that he ever did Was before he left, he went and named me Sue. Well, he must o’ thought that is quite a joke And it got a lot of laughs from a’ lots of folk, It seems I had to fight my whole life through. Some gal would giggle and I’d get red And some guy’d laugh and I’d bust his head, I tell ya, life ain’t easy for a boy named Sue.
