I’m Gonna Sing You a Sad Song Susie Lyrics

I'm gonna sing you a sad song, Susie
I'm gonna sing you a sad song, girl
I'm gonna sing you a sad song, Susie
I'm gonna sing a love song
All about you and me, girl

Oh girl, you know you lied to me
You said you love me more than anything
And all the time I was just a fool
Another fool in your care

I'm gonna sing you a sad song, Susie
I'm gonna sing you a sad song, girl
I'm gonna sing you a sad song, Susie
I'm wanna sing a love song
All about me and you, girl

Oh girl, you still don't know what love's all about
To you it's just another game too
I may be hurting now but in the end
Oh, in the end, girl, you knew

I'm gonna sing you a sad song, Susie
I'm gonna sing you a sad song, girl
I'm gonna sing you a sad song, Susie
I'm gonna sing you a sad song, girl
Sing you a sad song, Susie, I'm gonna sing you

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
