Well, when you're sitting there in your silk upholstered chair Talkin' to some rich folk that you know I hope you won't see me in my ragged company Well, you know I could never be alone
Take me down, little Susie, take me down I know you think you're the queen of the underground And you can send me dead flowers every morning Send me dead flowers by the mail Send me dead flowers at my wedding And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
And when you're sitting back in your rose pink Cadillac Making bets on Kentucky Derby Day I'll be in my basement room with a needle and a spoon And another girl to take my pain away
Take me down, little Susie, take me down I know you think you're the queen of the underground You can send me dead flowers every morning Send me dead flowers by the mail Send me dead flowers at my wedding And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
