BLACK EYED SUZIE

Black eyed Susie went to town

All she wore was a gingham gown.

Hey, Black eyed Susie

Ho Black eyed Susie

Hey, Black eyed Susie Jane.

I may get drunk, I may get woozy

But I'm comin' home to Black eyed Susie.

Black eyed Susie's long and tall

Sleeps in the kitchen with her feet in the hall.

Hey, old man I want your daughter

To chop my wood and carry my water.

Black eyed Susie lives in a holler

She won't come and I won't call her.

All I want in this creation

Pretty little wife on a big plantation.

All I need to make me happy

Two little boys to call me Pappy.

One name Sop and the other name Gravy

One sop it up and the other gonna save it.

Up Red Oak and down salt water

Some old man gonna lose his daughter.

Black eyed Susie went huckleberry pickin'

Came home late and took a lickin'.

Love my wife and love my baby

Love my biscuits sopped in gravy.

Goin' back home with a pocket full of money

Somebody there to call me honey...
