Lyrics

[Chorus]
Wake up, little Susie, wake up
Wake up, little Susie, wake up
[Verse 1]
We've both been sound asleep
Wake up, little Susie and weep
The movie's over, it's four o'clock
And we're in trouble deep
[Chorus]
Wake up, little Susie
Wake up, little Susie
[Bridge]
Well, what are we gonna tell your Mama?
What are we gonna tell your Pa?
What are we gonna tell our friends when they say
"Ooh, la, la"?
[Chorus]
Wake up, little Susie
Wake up, little Susie
[Verse 2]
Well, I told your Mama that you'd be in by ten
Well, Susie baby, looks like we goofed again
[Chorus]
Wake up, little Susie
Wake up, little Susie
We gotta go home
[Chorus]
Wake up, little Susie, wake up
Wake up, little Susie, wake up
[Verse 3]
The movie wasn't so hot
It didn't have much of a plot
We fell asleep, our goose is cooked
Our reputation is shot
[Chorus]
Wake up, little Susie
Wake up, little Susie
[Bridge]
Well, what are we gonna tell your Mama?
What are we gonna tell your Pa?
What are we gonna tell our friends when they say
"Ooh, la, la"?
[Outro]
Wake up, little Susie
Wake up, little Susie
Wake up, little Susie
