I Come From Alabama With My Banjo On My Knee

I'm Goin' To Louisiana My Own True Love For To See

It Rained All Night The Day I Left The Weather Was Bone Dry

And The Sun So Hot I Froze To Death Susanna Don't You Cry



Chorus:

Oh Susanna Don't You Cry For Me

I Come From Alabama With My Banjo On My Knee



Well I Had A Dream The Other Night When Everything Was Still

I Dreamed I Saw Susanna Comin' Down The Hill

A Buckwheat Cake Was In Her Mouth A Tear Was In Her Eye

Said I'm Comin' From The South Susanna Don't You Cry



(Chorus)



Well I Soon Will Be In New Orleans And When I Do Arrive

I'll Go And Find Susanna If She Is Still Alive

And If I Do Not Find That Girl I Will Surely Die

But When I'm Buried In My Grave Susanna Don't You Cry



(Chorus)
