Now, when I was just a little boy
Standing to my Daddy's knee,
My poppa said, "Son, don't let the man get you
Do what he done to me."

1. when I was just a little baby boy
my momma used to tell me these crazy things
she used to tell me my daddy was an evil man
she used to tell me he hated me,
then I got a little bit older
and I realised she was the crazy one
and there was nothing I could do to try and change it
cause that's just the way she was

But...

When I was a little bitty boy
My grandmother bought me a cute little toy.
Silver bells hanging on a string,
She told me it was my ding a ling a ling.
Oh, my ding a ling, my ding a ling,
I want you to play with my ding a ling.
My ding a ling, my ding a ling,
I want you to play with my ding a ling.

3. Well, my daddy left home when I was three,
and he didn't leave much to ma and me,
Just this ole guitar and an empty bottle of booze.

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 musta thought that it was quite a joke,
An' it got a lot of laughs from lots a folks,
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'll tell ya, life ain't easy for a boy named Sue.

I grew up quick and I grew up mean,
My fist got hard and my wits got keen,
I roamed from town to town to hid my shame.

But I made me a vow to the moon and stars,
I'd search the honky-tonks and bars,
And kill that man that gave me that awful name.

4. I can remember the Fourth of July
Runnin' through the backwoods there
And I can still here my ol' hounddog barkin'
Chasin' down a hoodoo there

5. Now when I was just a little boy
the devil called my name
I said who do
who do you think you're fooling...
