[Music] 'SUZANNAH'

Babe,
Remember when you sang the first verse during our session?
-- Well, here it is.  Took a long time, but well worth while.  :)

'SUZANNAH'
[After a fashion, Donovan-like]

[Verse 1]
Oh, Suzannah, sannah dear
you were my first
oh Suzannah, lying here
in the grass, jackrabbits passed
so very near, and sister dear
lies down with us, the sun so clear.

[Chorus]
Peter's-hedge on River Vayser
Down the way from Charlemagne's
-- river tower -of olden days
Oh, Suzannah, sannah dear
you were my first.

[Verse 2]
Mill on the floss, our next, -next door,
neighbourhood Vayser reedy water way
In red GB we trailed along
-- 'til fishweir caused a broken line
then in reverse all the way
back home

[Chorus]
Peter's-hedge on River Vayser
Down the way from Charlemagne's
-- river tower -of olden days
Oh, Suzannah, sannah dear
you were my first.

[Verse 3]
Bren'Nisseln's-burn, a joke was played
:  all who lived there had to learn.
That burn was in mind heart and mind,
the time I was there still so fond:
To me, -the best of times-
In happy hedges learnt to play at
domestic life -with a -wife

[Chorus]
Peter's-hedge on River Vayser
Down the way from Charlemagne's
-- river tower -of olden days
Oh, Suzannah, sannah dear
you were my first.

[Bridge]
River run
its course
in my veins
never dry

[Chorus]
Peter's-hedge on River Vayser
Down the way from Charlemagne's
-- river tower -of olden days
Oh, Suzannah, sannah dear
you were my first.
