The ladies name was susan
She dressed in fancy clothes
Wouldnt talk to common men oh why nobody knows
Then she fell in love with one
Oh a cowboy from the west
But he left her alone too long in her fancy nest

Ladies don't cry Susan they hold their heads up high
Never show their feelings
Never know the reason why
Mamma said find someone who on whom you can rely
Susan, ladies dont cry

Now she sits alone there so proud in her finery
But every night her heart breaks for that love she threw away
And her cowboy he rides so low with his dreams inside his mind
Every dawn regretting he never took her for his bride

Ladies dont cry Susan they hold their heads up high
Never show their feelings
Never know the reason why
Mamma said find someone who on whom you can rely
Susan, ladies don't cry

The ladies name was Susan
She dressed in fancy clothes
Wouldnt talk to common men oh why nobody knows
Then she fell in love with one
Oh a cowboy from the west
But he left her alone too long in her fancy nest

Now you know ladies do Cry Susan all alone in the night
And your cowboy hes so lonely never holding you so tight
His tears are like the falling rain on you're breaking heart

So now you know Susan ladies do cry
Ladies do cry
Ladies do cry
Ladies do cry

Ladies do cry
