Wake Up Suzy
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Wake up, a-little Suzy.
Wake up.
Wake up, a-little Suzy.
Wake up.
We've both been sound alseep.
Wake up, a-little Suzy, and weep.
The movie's over. It's four o'clock
And we're in trouble, deep.
Wake up, a-little Suzy.
Wake up, a-little Suzy.
Well, what're we gonna tell your mama?
What're we gonna tell your pop?
What're we gonna tell our friends
When they say, "Ooh-la-la."
Wake up, a-little Suzy.
Wake up, a-little Suzy.
Well, we told you're mama that we'd be in by ten.
Well, Suzy, baby, looks like we goofed again.
Wake up, a-little Suzy.
Wake up, a-little Suzy.
We gotta go home.
Wake up, a-little Suzy.
Wake up.
Wake up, a-little Suzy.
Wake up.
The movie wasn't so hot.
It didn't have much of a plot.
We fell asleep. Our goose is cooked.
Our reputation is shot.
Wake up, a-little Suzy.
Wake up, a-little Suzy.
Well, what're we gonna tell your mama?
What're we gonna tell your pop?
What're we gonna tell our friends
When they say, "Ooh-la-la."
Wake up, a-little Suzy.
Wake up, a-little Suzy.
Wake up, a-little Suzy.
