| [02:56.800] |
Somebody killed little Susie |
| [03:00.480] |
The girl with the tune |
| [03:02.880] |
Who sings in the daytime at noon |
| [03:07.080] |
She was there screaming |
| [03:09.570] |
Beating her voice in her doom |
| [03:13.800] |
But nobody came to her soon... |
| [03:17.380] |
A fall down the stairs |
| [03:19.870] |
Her dress torn |
| [03:22.770] |
Oh the blood in her hair... |
| [03:24.590] |
A mystery so sullen in air |
| [03:27.880] |
She lie there so tenderly |
| [03:30.690] |
Fashioned so slenderly |
| [03:33.450] |
Lift her with care, |
| [03:35.720] |
Oh the blood in her hair... |
| [03:43.160] |
Everyone came to see |
| [03:46.880] |
The girl that now is dead |
| [03:49.410] |
So blind stare the eyes in her head... |
| [03:52.990] |
And suddenly a voice from the crowd said |
| [03:57.960] |
This girl lived in vain |
| [03:59.870] |
Her face bear such agony, such strain... |
| [04:04.130] |
But only the man from next door |
| [04:07.300] |
Knew Little Susie and how he cried |
| [04:09.210] |
As he reached down |
| [04:11.690] |
To close Susie’s eyes... |
| [04:14.630] |
She lie there so tenderly |
| [04:17.120] |
Fashioned so slenderly |
| [04:20.050] |
Lift her with care |
| [04:22.730] |
Oh the blood in her hair... |
| [04:29.120] |
It was all for God’s sake |
| [04:31.520] |
For her singing the tune |
| [04:34.640] |
For someone to feel her despair |
| [04:39.850] |
To be damned to know hoping is dead and you’re doomed |
| [04:45.180] |
Then to scream out |
| [04:46.960] |
And nobody’s there... |
| [04:53.610] |
She knew no one cared... |
| [04:57.690] |
Father left home, poor mother died |
| [05:01.310] |
Leaving Susie alone |
| [05:04.180] |
Grandfather’s soul too had flown... |
| [05:07.760] |
No one to care |
| [05:10.540] |
Just to love her |
| [05:11.770] |
How much can one bear |
| [05:14.720] |
Rejecting the needs in her prayers... |
| [05:18.700] |
Neglection can kill |
| [05:21.100] |
Like a knife in your soul |
| [05:23.360] |
Oh it will |
| [05:25.200] |
Little Susie fought so hard to live... |
| [05:29.150] |
She lie there so tenderly |
| [05:31.620] |
Fashioned so slenderly |
| [05:34.560] |
Lift her with care |
| [05:36.880] |
So young and so fair |
