Refurbished Words; updated lyrics for a new generation

Oldies songs have a special place in my heart. I went through a phase in my teens where I listened to everything from the 30's - 60's. There's a lot there that I feel is being missed out on by the youths of today. Part of the problem I think is that people just spoke differently back then. Let's face it, you could say whatever you wanted so long as you were subtle about it. Subtlety is something that is lost in this era of obscene lyrics. Don't get me wrong, I like those too, but it just seems like too many are missing out. With that in mind, I have decided to do my part by updating lyrics to classic songs. My updates will be in red.

Today's Song:

'Runaround Sue'

'That Slut Called Sue'

Lyrics by 

Ernie Maresca and Dion DiMucci

Refurbished by

Yours truly

Here's my story, its sad but true

It's about a girl that I once knew

She took my love then ran around

With every single guy in town

Here's my story, sad but true

'bout this girl I used to do

She took my cash then slept around

With every other guy in town

Ah, I should have known it from the very start

This girl will leave me with a broken heart

Now listen people what I'm telling you

A-keep away from-a Runaround Sue

Oh, I should have known that my love was doomed

Her name and number in the motel bathroom

Listen peeps to what I'm telling you

I'd stay away from that slut named Sue

I miss her lips and the smile on her face

The touch of her hair and this girl's warm embrace

So if you don't wanna cry like I do

A-keep away from-a Runaround Sue

I miss the feel of her lips locked on mine

But she's like a bicycle, everyone's had ride

So if you don't want an STD from her too

I'd keep away from that slut named Sue

Ah, she likes to travel around

She'll love you but she'll put you down

Now people let me put you wise

Sue goes out with other guys

Here's the moral of the story from the guy who knows

I fell in love and my love still grows

Ask any fool that she ever knew, they'll say

Keep away from-a Runaround Sue

Oh, she always creepin' around

She'll screw you on her way through town

Now peeps listen to the truth

There's no guy, Sue wouldn't do

Here's the moral of the story I'm telling you

When I see her my soldier still salutes

But any fool that she ever screwed

Will say, keep away from slut-bag Sue 

Yeah, keep away from this girl

I know know what she'll do

Keep away from sue

Yeah, stay away from this chick

Don't know who she won't screw

Stay away from Sue
