“Called Him My Name” lyrics
Heard you called him my name
Buddy called me up at seven on a Sunday
Said "You won't believe what happened at the park"
Said your new man threw a baseball at the dunk tank
And you hollered out a name that wasn't his, and hit the mark
Well, it wasn't Jake and it wasn't Tyler
It wasn't anybody that I ever knew
It was mine, three letters, loud and happy
And the whole town turned around to look at you
Small town, word gets around
Faster than a pickup truck
Small town, everybody's heard
Guess I'm still in luck
Heard you called him my name
At the Fourth of July game
Everybody in the bleachers heard the same
Heard you called him my name
My name
(My name)
Oops
Now I'm grinning at the diner, I can't help it
Now I'm walking like I'm taller than I was
But I'm lying if I say it didn't get me
'Cause I still say yours when I'm drunk, because
Maybe you're just used to it, like a habit
Maybe it's a slip, like a word you know
But I'll be at the fair if you wanna say it
To my face, and see how it goes
Small town, word gets around
Faster than a pickup truck
Small town, everybody's heard
Guess I'm still in luck
Heard you called him my name
At the Fourth of July game
Everybody in the bleachers heard the same
Heard you called him my name
Say it once
Say it slow
Say it right in front of me
And let him go
Say it once
I'll know
Heard you called him my name
At the Fourth of July game
Everybody in the bleachers heard the same
Heard you called him my name
My name
(My name)
Oops
