Susie got a job in a London scene
It sure was rough,it sure was mean
The boss is a man',it's plain to see
He's in every hustle there could be
Susie ran around night and day
Living fast and gambling away
Foolin herself with a millionaire
She thinks it's love,but he don't care
Diamond tings,stars in her eyes
But one of these days she'll be surprised
It's tougher than you think in the city
You better slip away,yeh
You better slip away,Susie
You better slip away,Susie
You better slip away,Susie-
Slip away Susie
Now Susie really thought she had it made
All first class expences paid
Pink champagne and caviar
A colour TV in the back of her car
Diamond rings,stars in her eyes
But one of these days she'll be surprised
It's tougher than you think in the city
You better slip away,yeh
You better slip away,Susie,...
Susie had a heart-a heart of gold
But she's been hurt now it's stone,stone cold
Wasted tears and wasted years
Just painful scars of souvenirs
It sure is rough,it sure is mean
It's the meanest place you've ever seen
It's tougher than you think in the city
You better slip away,yeh
You better slip away,Susie,...
