Verses
C#m G#
Twenty days walking so lonely and talking to myself and the rocks and sand
C#m G# C#m
Got me to thinking 'bout going and drinking in a tavern with a clean-shaven man
C#m G#
Just when I thought all souls had been bought by the devil here long ago
C#m G# C#m
There did I see when I knelt to my knee I little texas flower grow
Chorus
C#m G#
Black-eyed Susan by the roadside blooming all yellow like sunshine red like wine
C#m G# C#m
Flower like you in a desert this cruel my my you're a rare rare find
Verses
Well my newfound friend gave my heart a mend I sang her songs of my wayward ways
When day turned to night in the crystal moonlight I confirmed her unwavering gaze
As the days unravelled I stayed in the gravel and Susan kept her eye on me
With my eye on her i felt my heart all astir with the joy of camaraderie
Chorus
Black-eyed Susan by the roadside blooming all yellow like sunshine
Red like wine flower like you in a desert this cruel my my you're a rare rare find
