Dead Flowers

- Jagger/Richard

Well when you're sitting there in your silk upholstered chair Talking
to some rich folk that you know
Well I hope you won't see me in my ragged company Cause 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
Ah, 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

Take me down little Susie, take me down
