John Prine - You Never Even Called Me By My Name 

Love to play John’s song on my lil uke. He left us a goldmine of lil tunes to spread his smile into eternity.

This story keeps getting stranger/better.

Wonderful John, not forgetting Steve.

Miss you handsome Johnny! Thanks for miles of smiles, Steve and John.

Brilliant , there will never be another John Prine .

My mom's family was from Maywood,they always called him little Johnny the mailman's son(some of them were also proud of Fred Hampton being a hometown boy).

I loved John Prine for almost 5 decades!! RIP JP. AMEN 🙏🙏

I love John's smiles and joy.

I wonder how Jason is doing. Guy was a master at subtleties and I hope he's still strumming that guitar wherever he is

Fablus! One of the greats....Can imagine Steve Goodman and John laughing at each other while composing this...👍

My dad turned me on to outlaw country and folk music. Great to hear JP do this one!

John never lied. This must be the true 'version'.😉

The wonderful, and. Lovely , john prine.

Miss ya John!!

I see a lot of people thinking David Allen Coe wrote. Here is one of the true artist.

like most of his songs, leaves me damp eyed, Thanks, bob

Such great music history

Thank you so much for posting this. As a huge fan of John and DAC, this song and its history has always been of interest to me. I had no idea John performed it at shows (or at least this one).

Ah John, we would have let you hang around longer!

I had heard Prine wanted to go uncredited for You Never Called Me but jeez this adds a new layer. I sense a story we're probably never getting the full version of. But let this be a lesson, don't beef with crafty song writers. They'll run your ass over with a train for posterity.

Fantastic!

Genius

John prine was great

can some one tell me who his back up guys are they complete his sound so perfectly

David Alan Coe always played this at his concerts and told a story about it, just a little different than this. Listen to his version if you haven't, it's also great, one of those 'everybody in the audience sings' kinda song at any DAC concert.

❤️💞💕

Jason Isbell is so young here!!! 3:17

San Judas Tadeo John Prine

😂😘😂❤❤❤❤❤

Trying to find a CD with this song. Anyone know of one?

..............:)

whenever I call my dad at some point or another during that phone call one is will start singing I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison but before I could get to the station in my pickup truck she got run over by a damned old train lol

Wow the line about dave driving the truck into the train is such a fuck you. Like yeah you took this song and drove it into the ground.

David Alan Coe sounds better at this song

First time I heard him attempt to sing a song. He seems to be like Kris Kristofferson a great writer. Dam Kris Kristofferson is maybe the greatest writers ever. This guy must have been a good studio pitch guy to get real singers to grab a song. Kris was a great writer and many people sang his songs. . He had no voice to speak about. But a nice style .I. Loved why me lord. . can't think of anything else I liked by Kris. But his songs by other great artist. He was good as a highwayman because Waylon was great. I loved the hywaymen group .. only because of Waylon. . but the guy who sings thru his nose . Or johnny cash. Ahh no. It should have been called Waylon's hywaymen.The strong voice among the 4.

Sound is bad on this. Shame.
