Lyrics Burl Ives – (I Hear You) Call My Name
Text:
(Call my name) Call my name
(Call my name) Call my name
I hear you call my name night and day
I heard you call my name in San Diego
And I thought I even saw you for a moment
In the waters of old San Francisco bay
I heard you say you loved me in Madesco
Though I now that you’re 3000 miles away
I thought that leaving you
Was the only thing to do
But I hear you call my name night and day
Call my name (Call my name)
Call my name (Call my name)
I hear you call my name night and day (night and day)
Call my name (Call my name)
Call my name (Call my name)
I hear you call my name night and day
I heard you say you missed me in Baloxie
And I saw your face in Huston in a crowd
You begged me to come back in Montgomery
And I thought was I to hasty or to proud
I thought I heard you weeping in Atlanta
And I cried all the way to Jacksonville
There’s just one thing to do
I’m a-coming back to you
I love you and I know I always will
Call my name (Call my name)
Call my name (Call my name)
I hear you call my name night and day (night and day)
Call my name (Call my name)
Call my name (Call my name)
I hear you call my name night and day
I hear you call my name night and day
