Susannah there was peace between

Our fathers

How we ceased lo be a bother

We would run together in the morning light

And separate until the cool of night

Oh my susannah



We can throw our dreams together

Though my other wing of feather

How can you stop the lightening,

In the sky and as the rains run red

One of the reasons why, oh my susannah



It ain't safe to stay here any more

Got to load the wagon and head up north.

And rearrange their reasons in our minds

Keeping safe a way in the present times.

Keeping safe a way in the present times.



Susannah there was peace between

Our fathers

How we ceased to be a bother

We could run together in the morning light

And separate until the cool of night

Oh my susannah, for me there ain't no other

I swear, i swear there ain't no other.

That won't stop the lightening in the sky

And as the rains run red,

One of the reasons why . . oh yeah you're

The light in the southern sky, susannah
