Dead Flowers (Live 2015) lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, when you're sitting there in your silk upholstered chair
Talking to some rich folks that you know
Well, I hope you don't see me in my ragged company
Well, you know, I could never be alone

[Pre-Chorus]
Take me down, little Susie, won't you take me down?
I know you think you're the queen of the underground

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
Well, when you're sitting back in your long pink Cadillac
Making bets on Kentucky Derby Day
I'll be in some basement room with a needle and a spoon
Another girl can take my pains away

[Pre-Chorus]
Take me down, little Susie, won't you take me down?
I know you think you're the queen of the underground
[Chorus]
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
Alright

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]
Take me down, little Susie, won't you take me down?
I know you think you're the queen of the underground

[Chorus]
You can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the U.S. mail
Say it with dead flowers at my wedding
And I won’t forget to put roses on your grave
No, I won’t forget to put roses on your grave

[Audience Applause]
Whoo!
