TEXT:
G
I went to a tea party three weeks ago
G D7 G
I had never been at one before
G D
I was dressed up in my best, just like this
A D
And got there at a quarter to four
E
The lassie that served me my tea was a queen
A D
One of the bonniest I've ever seen
G C G
Susie MacLean is her name and I'll tell
D A D
I've never done nae thing but sing to mysel'
G D
Since I met her.
G D7
CHORUS: Susie MacLean
G A D
When are you going to change your name?
G D7 C G
Just say the word and I'll make you my wife
D7 G
And I'll love you forever the rest of your life

I asked her if she ever had been in love
And she told me that she never had
Well I said, "You're a love," ach, I said "You're a dove."
But she just said, "Away, you young man."
I teased her and squeezed her, she said I was rough
Then she gave me a cuff on the jaw with her muff
But when I got home I sat down and wrote
A letter to Susie and this is the note
That I wrote her.
