Dead Flowers Song Lyrics

And when you’re sitting there

In your silk upholstered chair

Talking to some rich folks that you know

Well, I hope you don’t see me

In my ragged company

All that you know, I could never be alone…

*****

Take me down, little Susie, take me down

I know you think you’re the queen of the underground

Send me dead flowers every morning

Send me dead flowers by the mail

Send me dead flowers to my wedding

And I won’t forget to put roses on your grave…

*****

And when you’re sitting back

In your rose pink Cadillac

Making bets on Kentucky Derby days

I’ll be in my basement room

With a needle and a spoon

And another girl to take my pain away…

*****

Take me down, little Susie, take me down

I know you think you’re the queen of the underground

Send me dead flowers every morning

Send me dead flowers by the mail

Send me dead flowers to my wedding

And I won’t forget to put roses on your grave…

*****

Take me down, little Susie, take me down

I know you think you’re the queen of the underground

Send me dead flowers every morning

Send me dead flowers by the mail

Send me dead flowers to my wedding

And I won’t forget to put roses on your grave…

No, I won’t forget to put roses on your grave…

Dead Flowers Song Chords



Well, when you’re sitting there

In your silk upholstered chair

Talking to some rich folks that you know

Well I hope you won’t see me

In my ragged company

You know I could never be alone


Take me down little susie, take me down

I know you think you’re the queen of the underground

And you can send me dead flowers every morning

Send me dead flowers by the mail

Send me dead flowers to my wedding

And I won’t forget to put roses on your grave


Well, when you’re sitting back

In your rose pink cadillac

Making bets on kentucky derby day

I’ll be in my basement room

With a needle and a spoon

And another girl to take my pain away


Take me down little susie, take me down

I know you think you’re the queen of the underground

And you can send me dead flowers every morning

Send me dead flowers by the mail

Send me dead flowers to my wedding

And I won’t forget to put roses on your grave
