suzi foo
well, hanging out on 48th & 6th
i was sitting staring at the width
of the bottom of my rubber sole
when this unknown girl smiled
& told me her name was suzi foo
so we got to talkin' & walkin' and
i reached down & grabbed her hand
side by side down on park avenue
passing by the waldorf astoria hotel
she told me a story about her little hell
& i knew i had to save her right then & there
so i gave her fifty two dollars & rabbit's
foot
oh, little darlin', i wish you weren't as
hooked
i waited out in front of carnegie music hall
all the other girls they all looked kinda dull
yeah, well, i kept on waitin' & it started to
rain
she was running pretty late now and i really
thought she would come back to me & explain
when i get back to my home in pittsburgh
i'm really gonna miss her now all of the same
she told me i was a poet & a beautiful boy too
& my words were like songs on mermaid avenue 2
ah, she even dug good music that little suzi
foo -
suzi foo, ah, suzi foo, baby, i dig you, suzi
foo -
ah, suzi foo... ah, suzi foo... ah, suzi foo,
suzi foo -
