I come from Alabama
With a banjo on my knee
Gonna Louisiana
Susanna for to see
It rained all night the day I left
The weather, it was dry
The sun so hot I froze myself
But Susanna, don't you cry
Oh, Susanna
Don't you cry for me
I come from Alabama
With a banjo on my knee
I had a dream the other night
When everything was still
I thought I saw Susanna
A-coming down that hill
A buck wheat cake was in her mouth
The tear was in her eye
She said I'm coming from the south
Susanna, don't you cry
Oh, Susanna
Don't you cry for me
I come from Alabama
With a banjo on my knee
Oh, Susanna
Don't you cry for me
I come from Alabama
With a banjo on my knee
