Alright, so I stumbled across this randomly and it blew my mind, so I figured it'd be worth a post. First a little backstory - the person who wrote "A boy named sue" wasn't Johnny Cash. Cash actually covered the song, it was written by Shel Silverstein, who also wrote "The Giving Tree," one of my all time favorite children's stories. While that in it's own is mind blowing, what's crazier is that Silverstein wrote a sequel to A Boy Named Sue called The Father of a Boy Named Sue.
The sequel is told from the dad's perspective and tells how he lied about naming sue to make him tough, and how he did it just to be mean. It also talks about how his son actually was a drag queen, and it ends implying that they live together and are sexually involved with one another. The full lyrics (which are meant to be sung to the Boy Name Sue tune)
My mind is fucking blown. I figured you guys might enjoy it as well.

THE FATHER OF A BOY NAMED SUE
(Written by Shel Silverstein)
Intro by Shel Silverstein
OK, now, years ago, I wrote a song called "A Boy Named Sue", And,
that was OK and everything except, then I started to think about it,
and I thought, It is unfair. I am, I am looking at the whole thing
from the poor kid's point of view. And as I get more older and more
fatherly, I begin to look at things from old men's point of view.
So, I decided to give the old man equal time. OK, here we go...
Yeah, I left home when the kid was three
And it sure felt good to be fancy free
Though I knew it wasn't quite the the fatherly thing to do
But that kid kept screaming and throwing up
And pissing in his pants till I had enough
So just for revenge I went and named him Sue
Yeah!
It was Gatlinburg in mid July
I was gettin drunk but gettin by
Gettin old and going from bad to worse
When through the door with an awful scream
Comes the ugliest queen I've ever seen
He says, "My name is Sue, how do you do?"
Then he hits me with his purse
Now this ain't the way he tells the tell
But he scratched my face with his fingernails
And Then he bit my thumb
And kicked me with his high heel shoe
So I hit him in the nose and he started to cry
And he threw some perfume in my eye
And it sure ain't easy fightin an old boy named Sue
So I hit him in the head with a cane back chair
And he screamed, "Hey dad, you mussed my hair!"
And he hit me in the navel and knocked out a piece of my lint
He was spittin blood, I was spittin teeth
And we crashed through the wall and out into the street
Kickin and gouging in the mud and the blood and the creme de menthe
Then out of his garter he pulls a gun
I'm about to get shot by my very own son
He's screaming about Sigmund Freud and looking grim - woo
So I though fast and I told him some stuff
How I named him Sue just to make him tough
And I guess he bought it cause now I'm living with him
Yea he cooks and sews and cleans up the place
He cuts my hair and shaves my face
And irons my shirts better than a daughter could do
And on the nights that I can't score
Well, I can't tell you any more
But it sure is a joy to have a boy named Sue
Yeah a son is fun but it's a joy to have a boy named Sue!
My mind is fucking blown. I figured you guys might enjoy it as well.

That would seem to be a requirement for a boy named Sue. That or be a lawyer.
Wow.
I had no idea. That's pretty crazy.
the man was as perverted as he was whimsical
god bless him
but TFS can't be a father
for a number of reasons
or not poems
just, whatever.

That is awesome.
You win.
He said with a grin
As he wiped off his chin
"If my ear were a cunt I could fuck it!"
I've always heard that there was an extremely dirty limerick that began that way
But I'd never bothered to find out just what it was
it is for lyrics about fucking

For a good read, track down Silverstein's The Devil and Billy Markham.
