Edit (early take) for headphones. Source file is from the bootleg "Genuine Black Box" by Scorpio. An early version from spring 1970, where it is "little Lucy" instead of little Susie in the final chorus. This version is more relaxed than the official release from the album "Sticky Fingers" and less 'pumped up'. Origine of the title: someone who sent flowers to Keith Richards, arriving too late at the place he then stayed. (Others think this is recorded December 9, 1969 in Olympic Sound Studios.)
Mick Jagger - lead vocals, acoustic guitar
Keith Richards - lead guitar, harmony vocals
Mick Taylor - co-lead guitar, guitar solo
Charlie Watts - drums
Bill Wyman - bass guitar
Ian Stewart - piano
DEAD FLOWERS
(Jagger/ichards)
Well when you're sitting there
In your silk upholstered chair
Talking to some rich folk that you know
Well I hope you won't see me
In my ragged company
You know I could never be alone
Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the Queen of the Underground
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
Well when you're sitting back
In your rose pink cadillac
Making bets on Kentucky Derby Day
I'll be in my basement room
With a needle and a spoon
And another girl can take my pain away
Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the Queen of the Underground
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the Queen of the Underground
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the US mail
Say it with dead flowers at my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
No I won't forget to put roses on your grave
