David Allan Coe - Pledging My Love Lyrics

Fine job

Dac can sing !! Amazing

Best version EVER!.

My love Johnny and dedicated this song to me

My life is so miserable, I can't go on...

I have this Album for sale. Played only once when I taped it into Reel to Reel. Has not been played since 1978. Not Scratches.

That takes me back to putting one in the chamber and everybody laughing and saying "aww he's just drunk and stupid" then laughing along with the demons comforting me saying "you hear all these cocksuckers? Lmmfao!!! Listen to them laugh" then when I cocked the hammer back they all said "no! You crazy bastard!" but I pulled the trigger and it just said "click" but it was 6 to 1 odds. They beat my ass and said I was sick... One pussy puked in the corner... Which spoke volumes saying "is your life different than mine?" real and death stares at us laughing saying "really? Show me" I wanted to die then all because of what everybody thought, fuck them...

As he knows..its no where close to the original. But it's good.

One of the last true outlaw country singers first time I've heard this by him!

In my opinion he has the best version. This song is in my top 10 favorite of all time.

Just right

I've listened to EVERY version... from Elvis to "everyone else"...and THIS version is the only one that GETS IT!! Everyone else sings it from the sheet ... David Allen Coe sings it from his HEART & SOUL!!!

Totally agree.

Just fine

Johnny aces pledging my love words and music top 10 r/b songs of the 50's. Love you Johnny word for word.

Good gosh dang hill Billy love I love u Marylou ❤️😝🌪️

Love this song every time I hear this song makes me think about my late husband

Bad ass music man

Never could drink myself to death in the short term but added some methadone and my sister just happened to show up and and saved my life. The gun will put you out 99% of the time if your serious

The first time you played this song for me, you said every time you hear this song, it will remind you of me.. Till this day it does..
I miss you every damn day.. I miss everything about you.. Crazy we live a few miles apart, and not one word is spoken between us.. I know you miss me, as much as I do you..
Or else you wouldn't be on my mind..
They say every time someone comes to your mind, its them letting you know they are thinking of you..
You're forever in my heart babe.. ❤ L

It was a accidental shooting. He was playing with a gun he put the gun to his head saying it was not loaded but it was and he died. RIP Johnny Ace.

That DAC belt buckle!

I love this song so fucking much. IV never heard Johnny Ace sing it. BTW Johnny Ace is a black guy for y'all that didn't know... But I love how COE does it it's awesome though I love all of COE'S music.... OYeah I was also in S,C,I.. which is the prison he is talking about in the song Lancaster's. located in Lancaster OHIO....

I always think of the movie "Christine" that came out in 1983 with Johnny Ace's version, the BEST!

My 1st Husband dedicated this song to me when we first met and he passed away 2 years ago on 8 17 2015- Rest In Peace my darling Jeffrey

very good. Tom Jones did it but not as good

I was 9 in 1955 and have always loved this song. Simple lyrics, simple melody, but such a wonderful song. As an amateur guitar player and singer I love to play this song.

reminding me of my soon to be ex wife, Naomi, 😢

This is my favorite song of all time

beautiful song

Maybe this could go to all those who say he's racist...

Absolutely in the TOP 10 of 1950's R&B... Coe does Ace justice singin this.

How have I not heard this before.. This is the perfect song, has me speechless.

rick james the original is heard in the movie Christine

Its a beautifully written piece its a shame its not better known

get u laid every time

puss geter every time. i have been there done that! !!!!!!!

puss geter every time. i have been there done that! !!!!!!!

man this song hits home...I love u kimberly n Garrett lways and forever..

every one is racist

Do you even realize this is a Johnny ace song and Johnny Ace was a black man? Guess raciest jokes are only funny from black comic's right? Dude this isnt 1930 any more...times change, get over it.

I would say every one has prejudices but not racism. Racism is reserved for the select dumb asses. In Heaven there is no white church, black church, yellow church, red church or brown church. There will only be the blood bought church of Jesus Christ. Nuff Sed.

love this song...thanks johnny ace....touches deep

it sounds like you're the one who is a racist.... think about it

Isn't he a racist?

cindy Queen not at all, his x rated songs were all just for fun and he's said himself that he's not a racist. even his drummer was a black man during that time

why because hes white.

cindy Queen no Johnny rebel his old song writer was However he isn't he grandchild is half black and he speaks highly of his grandkids. dac is a blues singer it would be a oxymoron to be racist

johnny ace was tipsy and he was playing Russian roulette, back stage while talking to big mama thoughton. she sang. you ain't nothing but a hound dog, about 10 years before Elvis Presley. and way rhe gun went off. also latasha lee age 32 from Texas dogs a beautiful renditions of the song. plus see is very polite on the eyes.

That is the official version, however there are those who feel the police had something to do with this, we know this could not have happened, a Texas cop shooting a black entertainer, racist police in Texas, really? Read the book, The Thin Blue Line and form your own opinion.

life is barely worth living

stop thinking that way. It can get better, but you have to want it. I know this because i too was once just barely holding on. You have to try, try again, if all you do is lose, you have to find a way to win. may God Bless you.

Life has no meaning, and that alone is the only reason worth living for.

this just broke my fucking heart made me think of my ex.. But after a while crying feels numb also

At the end of this song I'm taking my revolver and killing myself. So long people..

Are you doing OK

so long, paddy

You dumb fuck if I could find you I would whip your ass 0for even thinking about killing yourself,suicide isn't nothing to make fun of or to poke fun at...ive lost 2 faimly members due to that kinda shit and have talked a quite a few others including myself out of killing them selves over the years...man by the time I was done with you suicide would be the furthest thing from your ever loving mind....just a big ole county boy from s.e.missouri

R.I.P man.

My dad sings this song to my mother, all the time. Love my mom.

A very beautiful song and melody.

The best version of Johnnie Ace's song!

Elvis Presley version is the best

@Edward Elson Nah I agree with David AC love Elvis but Brother David owns this..

Best version other than johnny ace himself

FUCK no. Nobody has done it better than Johnny Ace.

I will walknthis earth forever empty forever lost, but I will never stop loving you.. :(

Damn 4 years and you still torture me.

Awesome song..!

And you believe everything on Wikipedia @Beerchasers

One of the best covers ever.

Has and always will be my absolute favorite from David Allan Coe <3 <3 <3

I was always partial to Mona Lisa Lost Her Smile

i thought it was accidental- ??

Never knew it was a suicide note now it brings tears to my eyes R.I.P Jonny Ace

charles hansen What are you talking about? Johnny Ace accidentally shot himself in the head while playing with his gun in front some friends. It wasn’t a suicide.

I always wondered if he said moments or months before. As months would be closer to the truth.

I'm 42 and, frankly, ashame of myself for not hearing this until now. Such a marvelous, beautiful, longing and painful song.
