Black-Eyed Susan |
| Twenty days walking so lonely and talking to myself and the rocks and sand |
| Got me to thinking 'bout going and drinking in a tavern with a clean-shaven man |
| Just when I thought all souls had been bought by the devil here long ago |
| There did i see when I knelt to my knee a little Texas flower grow |
| Black-eyed Susan by the roadside blooming all yellow like sunshine, |
| red like wine |
| Flower like you in a desert this cruel |
| My my, you’re a rare rare find |
| Well my newfound friend gave my heart a mend |
| I sang her songs of my wayward ways |
| As day turned to night in the crystal moonlight |
| I confirmed her unwavering gaze |
| As the days unraveled I stayed in the gravel |
| And Susan kept her eye on me |
| With my eye on her I felt my heart all astir |
| With the joy of camaraderie |
