Subject: Lyr Add: MISS SUSIE HAD A STEAMBOAT
Riding on the bus with my daughter on the way to a field trip last week I heard an old standard from my childhood:
Miss Susie had a steamboat, the steamboat had a bell, The steamboat went to heaven, Miss Susie went to Hello, operator, please give me number nine, And if you disconnect me, I'll kick you right Behind the 'fridgerator, there was a piece of glass, Miss Susie sat upon it, and broke her little Ask me no more questions, I'll tell you no more lies, The boys are in the girl's room, pulling down their Flies are in the breadbox, Bees are in the park, Miss Susie and her boyfriend were kissing in the D-A-R-K, D-A-R-K, D-A-R-K Dark is for the movies, movies for the show, The show is for the tv,and that is all I know I know my ma, I know I know my pa, I know I know my sister with the forty-acre bra bra bra!!!
