Say now, now come 'ere
I, I just wanna talk wit' you, you know
I want to show you how to Suzy Q
Now, you watch
Ah, don't have to work your feet
You just hold up your fingers
I'm gonna show you now, you watch
(harmonica)
I don't care nothin' 'bout your engagement ring
Oh, come o'are here
At least you can talk with me, you know
Oh, just, just let me t-t-t tell
You somethin', you know
Oh, I don't wanna marry, no way
Now, watch
(harmonica)
None a-this, jazz
Oh, you ain't coming' at all, huh?
Oh, I know you don't love me, you love somebody
But I just wanna talk wit'ch you
Let Sonny Boy just tell you a word, hear?
Oh, that the way you do me a snub
But watch!
(harmonica)
Yes! Yes!
I wish I'd a met you ah, much earlier
You know, than I did, ah
Maybe I'm a little too late
But I just wanna show you how to Suzy Q
Come on out, you don't have to work your feet
Just hold your fingers
Look now, I'm gon' teach you!
Now you just watch
(harmonica and boogie to end)
