LITTLE SUE (Pete Ham)
[from Keyhole Street: Demos 1966-67 CD - recorded 1967 - released U.S. 2013]

Little Sue ain't coming home
The guests have gone, the wedding's over now
Just Mam and Dad left on their own
Feeling sad 'cause they're alone, they weep and
Talk of all the times they had
Walking with their children in the park

Little Sue ain't coming home no more
Listen, Mother, don't you cry
Could she be happier then?
I don't think so
Think of all the times we had
None of them were really, really bad

Wasn't long ago, their house was full
Funny, how the time can fly
Teddy bears and trains that Dad would play with
Now he wants his life again
Just so he can play with them once more

Little Sue ain't coming home no more
Listen, Mother, don't you cry
Could she be happier then?
I don't think so
Think of all the times we had
None of them were really, really bad
Mmmmmmm
