Blood, Sweat & Tears - Lonsome Suzie lyrics

rate me

(Richard Manuel)

Lonesome Susie

Never got the breaks

She's always losing

So she sits and cries and shakes

It's so hard just to watch her

And if I touch her,

Oh poor Susie

I'm wondrin' what to do

She just sits there, hoping for a friend

I don't fit here, but I may have a friend to lend

Maybe I mistook her

But I can't overlook her

Must be someone

Who can pull her through.

Anyone who felt that bad

Could tell me what to say

Even if she'd just get mad

She might be better off that way

And where is all the understanding

I know your problem

Can't be that demanding

Why is it she looks that way

Ev'ry time ev'ry time she starts to cry

Oh lonesome Susie

I can't watch you crying no longer

Baby if you can use me

'n-till you fill just a little bit Stronger, baby

I guess just watching you

Has made me lonesome too

Why don't we get together

What else can we do?
