I came from Alabama wid
My banjo on my knee
I'm g'wan to Louisiana
My true love for to see
It rain'd all night the day I left
The weather it was dry
The sun so hot I frose to death;
Susanna don't you cry
Oh Susanna
Oh dont you cry for me
I've come from Alabama
Wid my banjo on my knee
I had a dream the other night
When everyting was still;
I thought I saw Susanna
A coming down de hill
The buckwheat cake war
In her mouth
The tear was in her eye
Says I'm coming from the south
Susanna don't you cry
Oh Susanna Oh
Don't you cry for me
I've come from Alabama
Wid my banjo on my knee
I scon will be in New Orleans
And den I'll look all round
And when I find Susanna
I fall upon the ground
But if I do not find her
Dis darkie I'll surely die
And when I'm dead and buried
Susanna don't you cry
Oh Susanna
Oh don't you cry for me
I've come from Alabama
Wid my banjo on my knee
Oh Susanna
Oh don't you cry for me
I've come from Alabama
Wid my banjo on my knee
I've come from Alabama
Wid my banjo on my knee
I've come from Alabama
Wid my banjo on my knee
