Boy Named Sue by Shel Silverstein.
My daddy left home when I was three, And he didn't leave much to Ma and me... Just this old 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'. ...
And the same song, but from the father's point of view... (also by Shel Silverstein).
The Father of the Boy Named Sue
[Silverstein's speaking voice:] "Okay... now years ago, I wrote a song named "A Boy Named Sue", and that was okay and everything, except then I started to think about it, and I thought, "It is unfair. I am looking at the whole thing from the poor kid's point of view. And as I get more older and more fatherly, I begin to look at things from an old man's point of view. So... I decided to give the old man equal time. Okay. Here we go."
Yeah, I lef' home when the kid was three. It sure felt good to be fancy free Tho I knew it wasn’t quite the fatherly thing to do. But that kid kept screamin' and throwin' up And pissin' in his pants til I had enough So just for revenge I went and named him 'Sue'. It was Gatlinberg in mid July I was gettin' drunk but gettin' by Gettin' old and going from bad to worse When thru the door with an awful scream Comes the ugliest queen I've ever seen He says "My name is 'Sue'. How do you do?" Then he hits me with his purse. ...
