Oh Susannah - Al Jolson Oh i come from alabama with my banjo on my knee I'm going to louisiana My true love for to see It rained so hard the day i left The weather it was dry The sun so hot i froze to death Susanna don't you cry Oh susanna don't you cry for me I come from alabama with my banjo on my knee Oh susanna don't you cry for me I come from alabama with my banjo on my knee Oh i jumped aboard the telegraph and trabbeled down de ribber De lectrie fluid magnified And killed five hundred nigger De bullgine bust de hoss ran off I really thought i'd die I shut my eyes to hold my bref Susanna don't you cry Oh susanna 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 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 don't you cry for me For i come from alabama with my banjo on my knee 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 know i'll surely die And when i'm dead and buried Susanna don't you cry Oh susanna don't you cry for me For i come from alabama with my banjo on my knee
