Generate meaning
1
Suzanne was the jewel keeper
2
In a word she stole all the jewels
3
And she took them to a foreign land
4
Which was strictly against all the rules
5
And she wore them all proudly
6
Like a tiara crown on her head
7
She slept with them at night
8
Suzanne and the jewels in a bed
9
CHORUS:
10
Suzanne and her jewels
11
Livin' on the edge of a friend
12
Suzanne, how will you sleep at night
13
When they take that crown from your head?
14
Suzanne lived down by the river
15
The fountain of youth did flow
16
And she played on a steel guitar
17
And the drifters did come and they'd go
18
And she'd put on her crown
19
And she'd sing them a song
20
And some drifters would stay here the night
21
But they never did stay long
22
CHORUS:
23
Suzanne and her jewels
24
Livin' on the edge of a friend
25
Suzanne, how will you sleep at night
26
When they take that crown from your head?
27
This girl flew on the wind
28
She wrote her own name in the stars
29
Just goes to show sometimes you win
30
No matter how crazy you are
31
But a thief can come knocking
32
Even with blood on the door
33
And drink up your fountain of youth
34
And throw your jewels and your crown on the floor
35
CHORUS:
36
Suzanne and her jewels
37
Livin' on the edge of a friend
38
Suzanne, how will you sleep at night
39
When they take that crown from your head?
40
Suzanne and her jewels
41
Livin' on the edge of a friend
42
Suzanne, how will you sleep at night
43
When they take that crown off your head?
