Lyrics
Everybody sat here waiting for the train to come
Anticipation as people wait for the train's arrival.
Just lay down a bright red carpet for her to step on
A special welcome, symbolized by a red carpet.
Lookin' to the bend I see her waving her hands at me
Observing Susie waving as the train approaches.
Her looks were tanned and quite amazing as she ran to me
Describing Susie's attractive and tanned appearance.
*Hello Susie, hello Susie
Repeating a greeting to Susie.
Tell me the news about yourself
Asking Susie to share updates about herself.
Hello Susie, hello Susie
Repeating the greeting and expressing hope for Susie's enjoyment.
Tell me that you've enjoyed yourself
Requesting confirmation of Susie's enjoyment.
Frantically she knocked me over
Describing Susie's enthusiastic and unexpected interaction.
Causing such a scene
Creating a commotion with Susie's actions.
Shook the crowd enough to sway
The impact on the crowd and its effect on the queen's interest.
The interest from the queen
Susie's actions drew attention comparable to royalty.
Her black transistor socked out
Reference to a transistor radio, possibly contributing to the chaos.
One o'clock radio
Describing the overpowering impact of the radio.
Completely drowned the band
The radio drowned out the live band's performance.
And loud enough to stop the show
The radio disrupted the show.
(*repeat)
Repeating the earlier lines.
Yes sir rock 'n' roll the day away
Encouragement to enjoy rock 'n' roll.
Come on everybody
Invitation for everyone to participate.
They all seem too keen to make the scene
Expressing enthusiasm for making a memorable appearance.
Come on everybody, come on everybody
Repeating the call for everyone to join in.
Got to dig me just a while
Requesting attention for a brief moment.
I was... threw her bags into the car
Describing actions of putting bags in the car.
Susie took her bow and made her exit like a star
Highlighting Susie's exit, portraying her as a star.
The national news took films which... to make history
Media attention capturing Susie's historical departure.
Her looks were tanned and quite amazing as she ran to me
Reiteration of Susie's striking appearance.
(*repeat)
Repeating the greeting, possibly as the scene concludes.
