Well when you're sitting there in your silk upholstered chair 
Talking to some rich folk that you know
Well I hope you won't see me in my ragged company 
Cause you know I could never be alone

Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the queen of the underground
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding And 
I won't forget to put roses on your grave

Well when you're sitting back in your rose pink cadillac
Making bets on Kentucky Derby Day
Ah, I'll be in my basement room with a needle and a spoon
And another girl to take my pain away

Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the queen of the underground
And you can Send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the mail 
Send me dead flowers to my wedding 
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave

Take me down little Susie, take me down 
I know you think you're the queen of the underground 
And you can send me dead flowers every morning 
Send me dead flowers by the US mail 
Say it with dead flowers in my wedding 
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
No, I won't forget to put roses on your grave
