Susquehanna Lady dance with no shoes on
A E A
After all the relatives and preachers have gone
A E A
Susquehanna Lady dance in the moonlight
A E A
I snuck out my window found her in the night

There’s rhythm in the women, how do I know
A E A
Susquehanna Lady she told me so
D
You can feel the rhythm, you can feel it now
A E A
Susquehanna Lady she showed me how

Susquehanna Lady bathing in the flood
Cut-off jeans and t-shirt baking in the mud
Water at her belly, minnows at her toes
Susquehanna Lady she’s the river’s rose

There’s rhythm in the women, how do I know
Susquehanna Lady she told me so
You can feel the rhythm, you can feel it now
Susquehanna Lady she showed me how

Susquehanna Lady chasing lightning bugs
I caught her a dozen put them in a jug
Listening to the crickets and the bullfrogs moan
Susquehanna Lady knows the way back home

There’s rhythm in the women, how do I know
Susquehanna Lady she told me so
You can feel the rhythm, you can feel it now
Susquehanna Lady she showed me how
