Notes
-
- Originally recorded in 1969, first released on the flipside of "Add Some Music" in 1970 and only given an album release in 1976 on 15 Big Ones. Quite a punchy rocker by Al about a lady of ill-repute.

Well Susie Cincinnati
Got a groovy little motor car
She lives for the night
And her husband's a security guard
Her looks aren't exactly a plus
But it doesn't matter to us
Because she knows where it's at
And she gets you there in seconds flat
She knows all the honkies
And the kids are all home in bed
(Ooo ride Susie Cincinnati)
She'd rather do this
Than anything else instead
(Ooo ride Susie Cincinnati)
She got the nicotine fit
And before she discovered it
(Ooo ride Susie Cincinnati)
Everybody in the back seat suffocated
Susie Cincinnati we thought you were a winner
Susie Cincinnati city's number one sinner
Yeah
Susie Cincinnati we thought you were a winner
Woah
Susie Cincinnati city's number one sinner
Susie Cincinnati we thought you were a winner
Susie Cincinnati city's number one sinner
Yeah
Susie Cincinnati we thought you were a winner
Susie Cincinnati city's number one sinner
Woah yeah
She'll always pick you up
When the others go and leave you down
(To the ride to the ride Susie Cincinnati)
In her little red cab she's scootin' all over town
(To the ride to the ride Susie Cincinnati)
She's got a runnin' meter too
All polished up and shined for you
But it's just for looks
cause she'll give the ride free to you
