Suzie was a doll but it don´t solve
All the mysteries
Hanging with the guys, making with the eyes
Playing hard to please

Back in ´63, she was made for me
We were having fun
Wasn´t long before I could not ignore
She´s about hanging out
Campus queen dreams shattered years ago
And I´m the one who knows

It´s the same country love song
Different words, a different melody
It´s the same country love song

Mama said to me, John you got to be
Honest to yourself
Keeping up the pace, losing in the race
Further on the shelf

I want to write a country love song, telling of the wrong
Suzie did my heart
There is nothing more, it´s all been said before
C´est la vie, mon cherie
Lady Luck, mean sexy so-and-so
And I´m the one who knows
