Johnny Winter - Suzie Q. - Live 1979





In this night in Grugahalle Essen 22.04.1979 Johnny Winter, who had played at Woodstock, irrevocably established his name in Europe. He gave one of the most important concerts in the total 17 Rockpalast Nights (till 1986).


"Susie Q" is a song by musician Dale Hawkins recorded late in the rockabilly era in 1957. He wrote it with bandmate Robert Chaisson, but when released, Stan Lewis, the owner of Jewel/Paula Records and whose daughter Susan was the inspiration for the song, and Eleanor Broadwater, the wife of Nashville DJ Gene Nobles, were credited as co-writers to give them shares of the royalties.







Lyrics



Oh Suzie Q., oh Suzie Q

Oh Suzie Q., baby I love you

Suzie Q


I like the way you walk

I like the way you talk

I like the way you walk, I like the way you talk

My Suzie Q


Oh Suzie Q., oh Suzie Q

Oh Suzie Q., baby I love you

My Suzie Q


Well say that you will be true

Say that you will be true

Say that you will be true and never leave me blue

My Suzie Q


Oh Suzie Q., oh Suzie Q

Oh Suzie Q., baby I love you

My Suzie Q
