Susie Lou

Susie Lou, Susie Lou
Honey, what's wrong with you
Oh darling, my Susie Lou

You go out dancing every night
Skirt on low and a switchblade knife
Oh darling, my Susie Lou

Rattlesnake all round your waist
Wolves and shadows you do chase
Oh darling, my Susie Lou

And oh, it seems, the streets were paved for you
The flowers, the stars, the bottleneck scars
Darling, I never know where you are

Clothes on the line, pictures of you
If only Susie Lou just knew the truth

Then I wouldn't be so sad
I wouldn't be so cold
Susie Lou won't you satisfy my soul

I'll pay you this time
If you'll be all mine
For an hour or two
I wouldn't be so blue
Strolling in the park with Susie Lou

But she's gone again
till next Wednesday night
I'll wait for you baby, it'll be alright

Susie Lou, Susie Lou
Honey, what's wrong with you
Oh darling, my Susie Lou

You go out dancing every night
Skirt on low and a switchblade knife
Oh darling, my Susie Lou
