My Name Gets Said All Wrong

[Verse 1] You came in loud, you came in late, Asked for coffee, hold the fate. Then you squinted hard at my name tag sign, And butchered it like an old grapevine. [Chorus] It’s not Gee-na, not like the singer, Stretch that sound, don’t lose your finger. If you can’t say it right, just hum along, ‘Cause honey, my name gets said all wrong. [Verse 2] Every town, same old scene, Boys all guessing what it means. I just laugh and pour the brew, They spell it funny, but they tip it true. [Chorus] It’s not Gee-na, not like the singer, Stretch that sound, don’t lose your finger. If you can’t say it right, just hum along, ‘Cause honey, my name gets said all wrong. [Bridge] Now I’ve learned to let it slide, Let ‘em grin, I’ll take it in stride. Life’s too short for names and pride— Just say it sweet and I’ll let it ride. [Final Chorus] It’s not Gee-na, boy, try again, Sound it out slow, count to ten. Call me diner, call me song, Long as you know you’ve got it wrong! [Tag Outro] So here’s to the folks who play along, Spelling it funny but singing it strong. Every joke’s a toast before it’s gone— To the girl whose name gets said all wrong!
