Ever since Miss Susie Johnson

Lost her jockey Lee

There has been much excitement

And more to be

You can hear her moanin

Moanin night and morn

She's wonderin' where her

Easy rider's gone

Cablegrams goes off in inquiry

Telegrams goes off in sympathy

Letters came from down in Bam

Everywhere that Uncle Sam

Is the ruler of delivery

All day the phone rings it's not for me

At last good tidings fills my heart with glee

This message came from Tennessee

Dear Sue your easy rider struck this burg today

On a southbound rattler beside the Pullman car

I seen him there and he was on the hog

Oh you easy rider's got to stay away

She had to vamp it but the hike ain't far

He's gone where the Southern cross the Yellow Dog
