Dead Flowers

[Verse 1] Well, when you're sitting there in your silk upholstered chair Talking to some rich folk that you know Well, I hope you won't see me in my ragged company You know I could never be alone [Chorus] Take me down, little Susie, take me down I know you think you're the queen of the underground And you can send me dead flowers every morning Send me dead flowers by the mail Send me dead flowers to my wedding And I won't forgеt to put roses on your grave [Verse 2] Well, whеn you're sitting back in your rose pink Cadillac Making bets on Kentucky Derby Day I'll be in my basement room with a needle and a spoon And another girl can take my pain away [Chorus] Take me down, little Susie, take me down I know you think you're the queen of the underground And you can send me dead flowers every morning Send me dead flowers by the mail Send me dead flowers to my wedding And I won't forget to put roses on your grave Yeah [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] Oh, take me down, little Susie, take me down I know you think you're the queen of the underground And you can send me dead flowers every morning Send me dead flowers by the U.S. Mail Say it with dead flowers at my wedding And I won’t forget to put roses on your grave Oh, no, I won’t forget to put roses on your grave
