I call your name but you're not there
Was I to blame for being unfair
Oh I can't sleep at night
Since you've been gone
I never weep at night I can't go on

Well don't you know I can't take it
I don't know who can
I'm not going to make it
I'm not that kind of man

Oh I can't sleep at night
But just the same
I never weep at bight
I call your name

Don't you know I can't take it
I don't know who can
I'm not going to make it
I'm not that kind of man

Oh I can't sleep at night
But just the same
I never weep at night
I call your name
I call your name
I call your name

"I Call Your Name" is a song by The Beatles. Credited to Lennon & McCartney, the song was primarily written by John Lennon.

It was originally written by Lennon for Billy J. Kramer of The Dakotas, another Liverpool band who was signed to Parlophone by George Martin. Kramer released it as the B-side of "Bad to Me", another Lennon/McCartney composition, and hit #1 in late 1963.

Lennon was reportedly dissatisfied with the Dakotas' arrangement of his song, as well as its position as the single's B-side, so The Beatles recorded and released it on the 1964 Long Tall Sally EP. The song's midsection is the Beatles very successful attempt to introduce ska (which was then known as "bluebeat" and later "Reggae") to European and American audiences.
