[Verse 1]
Tell us what to do, black-eyed Susan
Should I leave you where I found you or take you back to him?
We first met at night, that's why we're never friends
Tell us what to do black-eyed Susan

[Chorus]
This is gonna be a dark road
People believed in something
Had it taken from them
You'll want to forget about this road
'Til it reached inside your pockets

[Verse 2]
Tell us what to do, black-eyed Susan
There's a top writer from a business college
That once paid for our home and spoon collection
Tell us what to do, black-eyed Susan

[Chorus]
This is gonna be a dark road
People believed in something
Had it taken from them
You'll want to forget about this road
'Til it reached inside your pockets
[Violin Solo]

[Bridge]
It's four in the morning, I think that I should go home
No good stuck inside your door
Leave some other time
Leave some other time
Leave some other time

[Outro]
This is gonna be a dark road
This is gonna be a dark road
(This is gonna be a dark road)
Tell us what to do, black-eyed Susan
(This is gonna be a dark road)
Tell us what to do, black-eyed Susan
(This is gonna be a dark road)
Remember your father, I spoke to him of our love
(This is gonna be a dark road)
Tell us what to do, black-eyed Susan
This is gonna be a dark road
This is gonna be a dark road
