Oh, Susanna
Lyrics
I came from Alabama with a banjo on my knee.
I'm goin' to Louisiana my true love for to see.
It rained all night the day I left,
the weather it was dry.
The sun so hot I froze to death.
Susanna, don't you cry!
Oh, Susanna, oh don't you cry for me!
I've come from Alabama
with a banjo on my knee!
I had a dream the other night
when ev'rything was still.
I thought I saw Susanna a-comin' up the hill.
The buckwheat cake was in her mouth,
the tear was in her eye.
Says I, I'm comin' from the south,
Susanna, don't you cry!
Oh, Susanna, oh don't you cry for me!
I've come from Alabama
with a banjo on my knee!
