I come from Alabama
|
With my banjo on my knee
|
I'm going to Louisiana,
|
Susanna for to see
|
It rained all night
|
The day I left
|
The weather it was dry
|
The sun so hot,
|
I froze myself
|
But Susanna, don't you cry
|
|
Oh, Susanna,
|
Don't you cry for me
|
I come from Alabama
|
With my banjo on my knee
|
|
I had a dream the other night
|
When everything was still
|
I thought I saw Susanna
|
Coming down that hill
|
The buckwheat cake
|
Was in her mouth
|
The tear was in her eye
|
Says I, I'm coming from the south
|
Susanna, don't you cry
|
|
Oh, Susanna,
|
Don't you cry for me
|
I come from Alabama
|
With my banjo on my knee
|
|
Oh, Susanna,
|
Don't you cry for me
|
I come from Alabama
|
With my banjo on my knee
|
|

Oh! Susanna
