Charlie & Suzie
David Knopfler
Charlie was a backwoods boy
Living with his backwoods girl
When Suzie had a baby boy
Charlie was as proud as hell
Living in the backwoods
Charlie was as happy as could be
With his baby boy he wasn't lonely no more
No, Charlie had a family
And the seasons change
He says: "Baby you're my pride and joy
Suzie you're the one I love"
He raise his eyes to the smoky skies
And he thank the lord above
Then trouble comes round
Suzie walkin' out of the door
Leaves a baby boy and a simple note
Says she won't be back no more
How the winds change
