|
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 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 |
|
For 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 |
|
A-coming down the 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, |
|
Oh don't you cry for me |
|
For I come from Alabama |
|
With my banjo on my knee |
