I love the sea, I love the Navy
Love my biscuits soaked in gravy
But, pretty little black-eyed Susie
But, pretty little black-eyed Susie
Cross my heart, I love you best of all

I love the hills, I love the prairie
I love Jane and I love Mary
But, pretty little black-eyed Susie
But, pretty little black-eyed Susie
Cross my heart, I love you best of all

I'm as happy as a king
Got the world upon a string
Can't ask, for more
I'm right at heaven's door

Oh, I used to do a lot of teasin'
Chased my gals, with ev'ry season
But, pretty little black-eyed Susie
But, pretty little black-eyed Susie
Pretty little black-eyed Susie, I love you

I love my pipe, I love tomaters
I love candied sweet potaters
But, pretty little black-eyed Susie
But, pretty little black-eyed Susie
Cross my heart, I love you best of all

Oh, I love the trees, I love the flowers
But to walk through April showers
But, pretty little black-eyed Susie
But, pretty little black-eyed Susie
Cross my heart, I love you best of all
(The best of all)

Used to say I'd never wed
Those were foolish words I said
'cos now, I see
That you are meant for me

Oh, I used to be a guy who gambled
I had wandering shoes that rambled
But, pretty little black-eyed Susie
But, pretty little black-eyed Susie
Cross my heart, my rambling days are through

Pretty little black-eyed Susie I love you
(My pretty little black-eyed) Susie I love you
