(Verse 1)
Suzy waitin' down by the courthouse, Hawda!
Waitin' for a friend to come.
Suzy waitin' down by the courthouse, Hawda!
But he took it on the run!
Yes he took it on the run!

(V 2)
Suzy waitin' down at the intersection,
Waitin' for the light to change.
Suzy waitin' down at the intersection,
She don't know it's gonna' rain.
No, Don't know it's gonna' rain.

(Chorus)
Singin' What'd I, What'd I Do Back There?
What'd I, What'd I, What'd I Do Back There?

(V 3)
Suzy standin' down at the depot, Hawda!
But he got off up the line.
Suzy standin' down at the depot, Hawda!
Yes, he got off up the line.

(Repeat Chorus)

(V 4)
Suzy speakin' up for her liberation.
Lord you know it's all so true.
Suzy speakin' up for her liberation.
She don't know he needs it too.
No! Don't know he needs it too.

(Repeat Chorus)

Creedence Clearwater Revival had the genius Song-Writer, John Fogerty. I was playing some of his Songs and wrote this one.
Fogerty's work stood with Carole King and The Beatles as the only artists who consistently had 'double-sided' hits. In the early days of mass marketing of music a vinyl record with one Song on one side was the modus operandi of music cut and released to market. They were played at 45 revolutions per minute on a device that dragged a physical needle through a continuous groove in the vinyl, reproducing the sound. Someone finally noticed the 'B' side was being left blank and began to put something, often anything, on that side, just so it wasn't blank. Often the 'B' side was unremarkable, just 'filler' material and no one paid attention to it. When these three Song-Writing artists came to market, both sides became hits. If you haven't heard them, they make a great exploration for yourself, and great gifts to young listeners.
