 I stood a-watchin' all night long
 I stood a-watchin' all night long
 I stood a-watchin' till you went away
 You were a girl of many charms
 Oh, how I loved you in my arms
 I never thought that you would ever go
 'cause I loved you so
 
 CHORUS
 Oh, uh, Susie darlin'
 I thought you knew
 You were all the world to me
 All my dreams come true
 
 I stood a-cryin' all night long
 I stood a-cryin' all night long
 Cryin' wishin' you'd come back to me-ee
 Thinking of all the dreams we knew
 Now that you're gone they won't come true
 My heart is empty without you
 Nothin' there but misery
 
 CHORUS
 
 Now-ow I stand a-watchin' all night long
 I stand a-watchin' all night long
 Knowing that life has nothing left for me-ee
 I'll wait around most patiently
 Hopin' you will return to me
 Till that happy day I will always be
 Watchin' all night long
 
 Oh, uh, Susie darlin'
 I thought you knew
 You were all the world to me
 All   my   dreams   come true
