Oh, Susanna

Share This

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

Chorus
Oh, Susanna
Oh don't you cry for me
I've 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
A-coming down the hill

The buckwheat cake was in her mouth
A tear was in her eye
Says I, "I'm comin from the South
Susanna, don't you cry."

Chorus
