Black Eyed Susan

Paul Westerberg · 14 Songs [1993]

Two.

Beads of sweat glimmer to the ground

Golden tears shimmer soft and round



Throwing small shadows

I catch those that fall at my feet

Black-eyed Susan dancing in the breeze



See your slight body relax

Soon your young veins will collapse

Still throwing small shadows

Catch those that fall at my feet

Black-eyed Susan dancing in the breeze

Black-eyed Susan dancing in the breeze



Painted your curb, they know where to park

Painted your face, can't find you in the dark

You're a night girl, come on dance with me

See the bright pearls sink in a sky of ebony



Throwing small shadows

I catch those that fall at my feet

Black-eyed Susan dancing in the breeze

Black-eyed Susan dancing in the breeze



Throwing small shadows

God knows you move with ease

Throwing small shadows

Catch those that fall at my feet

Black-eyed Susan dancing in the breeze

Black-eyed Susan dancing just for me

Black-eyed Susan dancing in the breeze



Mmm just for me

Mmm just for me
