If You Knew Susie

Buddy DeSylva, Joseph Meyer.

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.

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, Oh my goodness what a chassis.

We went riding, she didn’t balk,
From the country, 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.

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 parlour, you would think the war was on.
If you knew Susie like I know Susie,
Oh, Oh what a girl.

She’ll spend Sunday praising the Lord,
But on Monday she’s as busy as a Ford.
If you knew Susie like I know Susie,
Oh, Oh what a girl.

I had a moustache, and
Trained it like a pup.
She’s got such hot lips,
She kissed me once and burned it up.

If you knew Susie like I know Susie,
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh what a girl.
