lyrics

There’s a twenty
In an envelope
In there with it
A note that I wrote

There’s no anger
And there’s no pride
But a deeper seated
Anchor inside

She’s a deep water ship
And it’s a deep water crew
We can keep to the coast
But we’re toast if we do
I can still see the sunset
A’ comin’ down on you

Will you write me back
Will you write me back
Will you write me back
Suzanne, Suzanne

There’s no highway
Too far to drive
Fill the tank
And keep your eyes
On the open sky

If there was currency
From you girl
I could buy enough fuel
To drive the world

It’s the longest road
I’ve ever driven in a day
And I only made two stops
But I still lost my way
Couldn’t get you to say
That you wanted me to stay

Will you call me back
Will you call me back
Will you call me back
Suzanne, Suzanne

Almost patient
And mostly kind
But this mountain’s
Been wearin’ on my mind

There’s no river
Too far to cross
But I keep losin’ my footin’
On the rocks

If I was a poet
I’d find the right lines
Tried to pay off the muses
But I blew it this time
And I used my last quarter
Now I’m down to a dime

Will you call me back
Will you call me back
Will you have me back
Suzanne, Suzanne
