Lyrics
- I have got a sweetie known as Susie
In the words of Shakespeare she’s a “wow”
Though all of you may know her, too
I’d like to shout right now
Chorus
If you knew Susie like I know Susie
Oh! Oh! Oh! what a girl
There’s none so classy as this fair lassie
Oh! Oh! Holy Moses! what a chassis
We went riding, she didn’t balk
Back from Yonkers, I’m the one that had to walk
If you knew Susie like I know Susie
Oh! Oh! what a girl
- Susie has a perfect reputation
No one ever saw her on a spree
Nobody knows, where Susie goes
Nobody knows, but me
Chorus
If you knew Susie like I know Susie
Oh! Oh! Oh! what a girl
She wears long tresses and nice tight dresses
Oh! Oh! what a future she possesses
Out in public, how she can yawn
In a parlor, you would think the war was on
If you knew Susie like I know Susie
Oh! Oh! what a girl
