Sweet Sue
Dickie Wells and His Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every star above, baby,
Knows the one I love:
Sweet Sue - just you!

And the moon on high, baby,
Knows the reason why:
Sweet Sue - is you!
No one else it seems,
Ever shared my dreams,
Without you I don't know what I'd do.

In this heart of mine,




You live all the time,
Ooh, Sue - just you!
