Susannah there was peace between   our fathers   How we ceased lo be a bother   We would run together in the morning light   And separate until the cool of night   oh my Susannah      We can throw our dreams together   Though my other wing of feather   How can you stop the lightening,   In the sky and as the rains run red   One of the reasons why, oh my Susannah      It ain't safe to stay here any more   Got to load the wagon and head up north.   And rearrange their reasons in our minds   Keeping safe a way in the present times.   Keeping safe a way in the present times.      Susannah there was peace between   Our fathers   How we ceased to be a bother   We could run together in the morning light   And separate until the cool of night   Oh my Susannah, for me there ain't no other   I swear, I swear there ain't no other.   That won't stop the lightening in the sky   And as the rains run red,   One of the reasons why . . Oh yeah you're   the light in the southern Sky, Susannah
