[03:17.38]A fall down the stairs [03:19.87]Her dress torn [03:22.77]Oh the blood in her hair... [03:24.59]A mystery so sullen in air [03:27.88]She lie there so tenderly [03:30.69]Fashioned so slenderly [03:33.45]Lift her with care, [03:35.72]Oh the blood in her hair... [03:43.16]Everyone came to see [03:46.88]The girl that now is dead [03:49.41]So blind stare the eyes in her head... [03:52.99]And suddenly a voice from the crowd said [03:57.96]This girl lived in vain [03:59.87]Her face bear such agony, such strain... [04:04.13]But only the man from next door [04:07.30]Knew Little Susie and how he cried [04:09.21]As he reached down [04:11.69]To close Susie’s eyes... [04:14.63]She lie there so tenderly [04:17.12]Fashioned so slenderly [04:20.05]Lift her with care [04:22.73]Oh the blood in her hair... [04:29.12]It was all for God’s sake [04:31.52]For her singing the tune [04:34.64]For someone to feel her despair [04:39.85]To be damned to know hoping is dead and you’re doomed [04:45.18]Then to scream out [04:46.96]And nobody’s there... [04:53.61]She knew no one cared... [04:57.69]Father left home, poor mother died [05:01.31]Leaving Susie alone [05:04.18]Grandfather’s soul too had flown... [05:07.76]No one to care [05:10.54]Just to love her [05:11.77]How much can one bear [05:14.72]Rejecting the needs in her prayers... [05:18.70]Neglection can kill [05:21.10]Like a knife in your soul [05:23.36]Oh it will [05:25.20]Little Susie fought so hard to live... [05:29.15]She lie there so tenderly [05:31.62]Fashioned so slenderly [05:34.56]Lift her with care [05:36.88]So young and so fair [05:46.55]……
