Susie got a job in a london scene
It sure was rough
It sure was mean
The boss is a man
It's plain to see
He's in every hustle there could be.
Susie ran around night and day
Living fast anf gambling away
Foolin' herself with a millionaire
She thinks it's love
But he don't care.
Diamonds rings
Stars in her eyes
But one of these days she'll be surprised
It's tougher than you think in the city
You better slip away
Yeah.
You better slip away
Susie
You better slip away
Susie
You better slip away
Susie
Slip away
Susie.
Now susie really thought she had it made
All first class expenses paid
Pink champagne and caviar
A colour tv in the back of her car.
Diamonds rings
Stars in her eyes
But one of these days she'll be surprised
It's tougher than you think in the city
You better slip away
Yeah
You better slip away
Susie
Susie had a heart - a heart of gold
But she's been hurt now it's stone
Stone cold
Wasted tears and wasted years
Just painful scars for souvenirs.
It sure is rough
It sure is mean
It's the meanest place you've ever seen
It's tougher than you think in the city
You'd better slip away
Yeh.
You better slip away
Susie
