Green's Call Me contains a pair of familiar country songs, which were intended to bolster the soul singer's accessibility to white listeners: Hank Williams' "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" and Willie Nelson's "Funny How Time Slips Away," both reworked to blend seamlessly with Green's swaying Southern R&B.
