lyrics

Well, I come from Alabama with my Banjo on my knee
I’m going to Louisiana, my true love for to see
It rained all night the day I left, the weather was bone dry
The sun so hot I froze to death, Susanna, don’t you cry

Oh! Susanna, oh 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 dear coming down the hill
A buckwheat cake was in her mouth, a tear was in her eye
I said I’m coming from the South, Susanna, don’t you cry

Oh! Susanna, oh don’t you cry for me!
I come from Alabama with my Banjo on my knee.

When I get to New Orleans I'll look all round and round
And when I find Susanna I'll fall right on the ground
But if I do not find her, I will surely die
And when I'm dead and buried, Susanna, don't you cry

Oh! Susanna, oh don’t you cry for me!
I come from Alabama with my Banjo on my knee.
