Just because I ask a friend about her
Just because I spoke her name somewhere
Just because I rang her number by mistake today
She thinks I still care
Just because I haunt the same old places
Where the mem'ry of her lingers ev'rywhere
Just because I'm not the happy guy I used to be
She thinks I still care
But if she's happy thinkin' I still need her
Then let that silly notion bring her cheer
But how could she ever be so foolish
Oh where would she get such an idea
Just because I ask a friend about her
And just because I spoke her name somewhere
Just because I saw her then went all to pieces
She thinks I still care
She thinks I still care
Merle Ronald Haggard (1937-2016) was one of the most influential singer-songwriters in American country music. Born in Bakersfield, California, Haggard began his musical career in the 1950s, influenced by artists like Hank Williams and Lefty Frizzell. In 1966, with his album "Sing Me Back Home", he achieved national success, solidifying his traditional country style with a touch of rockabilly and folk. Haggard was known for his introspective and realistic songs that addressed themes such as rural life, lost love, social justice, and the struggle against poverty. Among his most famous songs are "Okie from Muskogee", "Mama Tried", "The Fightin' Side of Me" and "I Think I'll Just Stay Here and Drink". He won numerous awards, including three Grammy Awards, and sold over 38 million records worldwide.
