lyrics

Black Eyed Suzie

Black Eyed Suzie came to town
All she wore was a gingham gown

Hey old man, I want your daughter
To chop my wood and carry my water
Black eyed Suzie
Black eyed Suzie
Black eyed Suzie

Comin’ back home with a pocket full of money
Nobody ‘round to call me honey
I may get drunk, I may get woozy
But I want to come home to Black eyed Suzie
Black eyed Suzie
Black eyed Suzie
Black eyed Suzie

Black eyed Suzie lives over yonder
She won’t come, I won’t call her
Up Red Creek and down saltwater
Some old man’s gonna lose his daughter
Black eyed Suzie
Black eyed Suzie
Black eyed Suzie

I’m a man who has my say
I’ll have her hand, I’ll have my way
I’ll ask that girl to be my wife
Or I’ll regret it all my life

about

Onion Honey Waterloo, Ontario

Onion Honey makes folk music, sharp and sweet and mixed in with banjo and mandolin, washboard and double bass, fiddle and warm five-part harmonies. It’s a recipe for a great time and good for what ails, home-cooked comfort food for the ears.
