Country Love Song

Elton John

Suzie walks her dog but it don't solve

All the mysteries

Hanging with the guys, making with the guys

Playing hard to please

Back in '63, she was made for me

We were having fun

Wasn't long before I could not ignore

She's about hanging out

Campus queen dreams shattered years ago

And I'm the one who knows

It's the same country love song

Different words, a different melody

It's the same country love song

Mama said to me, John you got to be

Honest to yourself

Keeping up the pace, losing in the race

Further on the shelf

I want to write a country love song, tell them nothing's wrong

Suzie did my heart

There is nothing more, something said before

C'est la vie, mon cherie

Lady Luck, me and sexy so-and-so

And I'm the one who knows
