Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You've got my name
So why don't you call me
Little Liza Jane
You've got that body
You've got that frame
So why don't you call me
Girl I got it bad for you
There ain't nothin' I won't do
Just one kiss and I'll never be the same
Little Liza Jane, oh little Liza Jane
Now you've heard my story
You've got to know my name
So why don't you call me
Little Liza Jane
You've got my number
You've got my name
So why don't you call me
Little Liza Jane
The song "Liza Jane" by Doc Watson (Children's) is about a man who is hopelessly in love with a woman named Liza Jane. He tells her that she has his number and name and wonders why she hasn't called him yet. He is enamored by her body and frame and is willing to do anything for her if she would just give him a chance. He is so infatuated with her that just one kiss would change his life forever. He pleads with her to call him because he wants her so much.
The song is simple, catchy, and upbeat, and it captures the essence of young love. It's a playful flirtation between a man and a woman, and the man is doing everything he can to get the woman's attention. This song is reminiscent of old-timey country songs and has a true Appalachian sound to it. The lyrics are simple, but they convey the message of wanting someone so much that you are willing to do anything for them.
