Late last night, I went for a walk, Down by the river near my home. Couldn't believe, with my own eyes, And I swear I'll never leave my home again.
I saw a man walking on the water. Coming right at me from the other side. Calling out my name; "Do not be afraid." Feet begin to run, pounding in my brain; I don't want to go; I don't want to go.
No, no, no, no, no... I don't want to go. Mmmmmmm...
Oh Susie Q,Oh Susie Q, baby I love you,Susie Q.I like the way you walk,I like the way you talk,I like the way you walk, I like the way you talk, Susie Q.You say that you'll be true,You say that you'll be true,You say that you'll be true,Baby I love you, Susie Q.You say that you'll be mine,You say that you'll be mine,You say that you'll be mine,Baby all the time, Susie Q.Oh Susie Q,Oh Susie Q,Oh Susie Q baby I love you,Susie Q.I like the way you walk,I like the way you talk,I like the way you walk, I like the way you talk, Susie Q
Howdy, friend, beggin' your pardon, Is there somethin' on your mind? You've gone and sold all your belongings, Is that something in your eye?
Well, I know you really never Liked the way it all goes down; Go on, Hideaway.
What's that you say? We're all bound for the graveyard; Oooh, I wish you well. Think it's gonna rain, Oh, what's the diff'rence, Is there some way I can help?
'Cause you know, I'm gonna miss you When you're gone, oh, Lord, Wish I Could Hideaway
Hold on, give yourself a chance, I can hear the leavin' train.
All aboard! Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye! Oooh, I wish you well. See you soon, maybe tomorrow. You can never tell;
"Cause you know, I'm gonna miss you When you're gone, oh, Wish I could Hideaway
There's a place up ahead and I'm going just as fast as my feet can fly Come away, come away if you're going, leave the sinking ship behind.
* Come on the rising wind, we're going up around the bend.
Ooh! Bring a song and a smile for the banjo, better get while the gettings good, Hitch a ride to the end of the highway where the neons turn to wood.
* Repeat
Oooh! You can ponder perpetual motion, fix your mind on a crystal day, Always time for a good conversation, there's an ear for what you say.
* Repeat
Yeah!
Oooh! Catch a ride to the end of the highway and we'll meet by the big red tree, There's a place up ahead and I'm going, come along, come along with me.
