David Allred - Randy and Susan Lyrics

Randy works a nine to five
He's done this his entire life
His boss will have a word with him
The picture has always been grim

Randy now lives all alone
His wife grew tired of their small home
He never had much to impress her
Now she's gone away forever

Susan found another lover
With more money than any other
Her desires grew like a flower
Above the trees with money and power

Susan started growing old
And needed special care
Her husband wasn't really there
He watched TV, sat in his chair

Susan crawls herself upstairs
And reaches for a pen
Addressed the note to her old friend
The last words she will ever send:

""I struck a match, threw it in the fire
Climbed the ladder till I couldn't get higher
Dug my own grave with a shovel at my feet
And finally learned the difference
Between love and greed""
