1. Oh, I come from Alabama, with my banjo on my knee. I’m goin’ to Louisiana My true love for to see. (CHORUS) Oh! Susanna, now don’t you cry for me. For I come from Alabama, with my banjo on my knee. 2. It rained all night the day I left; The weather was so dry. The sun so hot I froze to death. Susanna don’t you cry. (CHORUS) Oh! Susanna, now don’t you cry for me. For I come from Alabama, with my banjo on my knee. 3. I had a dream the other night When everything was still; I thought I saw Susanna, Acomin’ down the hill. Repeat Chorus: Oh! Susanna, now don’t you cry for me. For I come from Alabama, with my banjo on my knee. 4. A buckwheat cake was in her mouth; A tear was in her eye. I said, “I come from Dixie Land; Susanna, don’t you cry!” Repeat Chorus: Oh! Susanna, now don’t you cry for me. For I come from Alabama, with my banjo on my knee
