Early
Looks a cracked on Sister Sue
Found her in a bag
And Laverne in Cleveland never knew
The son/sun could be a drag
But when the bathroom door was shut
LaVerne was jarring apricots
Sister Sue, shame on you
Sister Sue
Come on home, sister sue
She ran away to Hollywood
She made it on her smile
Back to Cleveland, Harry called
The missing person's file
He said: Laverne and I worried
The kid is just a boy, please hurry
Sister Sue, where are you?
Sister Sue, come on home Sister Sue
Wherever you are, we loved just you
Sister Sue
Whatever you are, we love you for you
Sister Sue
Wherever you are, we loved just you
Sister Sue
Whatever you are, we love you for you
Sister Sue
Well they never found ol' Sister Sue
Most likely they never will
Although she's rather famous now
The star of many films
LaVerne and Harry would never see
Their baby's movies on TV
Sister Sue, where are you
Sister Sue, come on home sister sue
Shame on you, Sister Sue
Where are you, Sister Sue?
