American Old Time Song Lyrics: 02 Good Bye Susan Jane
Theater, Music-Hall, Nostalgic, Irish & Historic Old Songs, Volume 2
GOOD-BYE, SUSAN JANE
I went to see my Susan,
She met me at the door,
And told me that I needn't come
To see her any more;
She fell in love with Rufus
Andrew Jackson Payne,
I looked her in the face and said,
"Good-bye, Susan Jane."
Chorus.
Oh! Susan Jane!
Oh! Susan Jane!
Oh! Susan, quit your fool in',
And give my heart to me,
Oh, give me back my love again,
And I will let you be:
I used to love you dearly,
I can not love again,
I'm going away to leave you soon,
Good-bye, Susan Jane.
Her mouth was like a cellar,
Her foot was like a ham,
Her eyes were like an owl's at night,
Her voice was never calm;
Her hair was long and curly,
She looked just like a crane,
I've bid farewell to all my love,
"Good-bye, Susan Jane."-Chorus.
Oh, Susan's so deceiving,
She will not do to trust;
I've threathen'd once to leave her,
And leave her now I must;
I'll never love another.
To cause me any pain;
I've trusted her, ana all the girls
Are just like Susan Jane.-Chorus.
