Dead Flowers

And when you're sitting there
In your silk upholstered chair
Talking to some rich folks that you know
Well I hope you won't see me
In my ragged company
You know I could never be alone

Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the Queen of the Underground
Send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flower by the mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave

Dead Flowers" is a song written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards of the rock and roll band The Rolling Stones,
appearing on their 1971 album Sticky Fingers.

This is the version of Townes van Zandt

One of my favourites too, but since this is the second or third entry for it, I will switch to another Stones song within the next days. They are my all time favourites, and when I don´t believe my age I only have to look at their faces (LOL).

One of my favorite songs. I love the video, old family photos make it even more sad. Perfect photo for this great song.
