about

An original composition by Australian Musician, Composer, Producer, Arranger. This song was written in the style of the late 1920’s early 1930’s when music was lyrical with flowing melodies and often tinged in humour.

lyrics

Verse
What can I say about Suzie, that hasn't been said before
I've had some special girls in my life, but none that I could call my wife
so I travelled around this great big world, from Idaho to Tim-buck-too
and now I know I've found the one, a girl to make my dreams come true

Chorus
I'd rather be with Suzie 'cause Suzie's the gal I adore
I spent a night with Daisy and she nearly drove me crazy
and Nellie in the sun was just a bore

I once went out with Mabel and she drank me under the table
and Dolly never ever said hello
some people think I'm choosy but I'd rather be with Suzie
'cause Suzie's the gal that I adore

Chorus 2

There's no other gal like Suzie, 'cause Suzie's the gal for me
I even tried Sadie, but she was no lady,
and Louise wasn't always such a breeze

I spent a week with Molly but it ended up a folly
and Rosie's not as sweet as she may seem
my Suzie's rather nifty and she's not too far past sixty
Suzie's the gal for me
