Dead Flowers (Live At University of Leeds / 1971)

[Intro]

We'd like to do a new song for you now called "Dead Flowers"

[Verse 1]

Yeah, when you're sitting there in your silk, upholstered chairs

Talking to some rich folks that you know

Well, I hope you won't see me in my ragged company

You know I could never be alone

[Pre-Chorus]

Take me down, little Susie, take me down

I know you think you're the queen of the underground

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

Yeah, when 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 pains away

[Pre-Chorus]

Take me down, little Susie, take me down

I know you think you're the queen of the underground

[Chorus]

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

[Guitar solo]

[Pre-Chorus]

Take me down, little Susie, take me down

I know you think you're the queen of the underground

[Chorus]

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

No, I won’t forget to put roses on your grave

Thank you

Woo hoo

Thank you very much
