lyrics

I come from Alabama with a 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; O Susanna, don’t you cry
O Susanna, O don’t you cry for me
For I come from Alabama with a banjo on my knee

I had a dream the other night when everything was still
I dreamed I saw my gal Susanna coming up the hill
A red, red rose was in her hand; a tear was in her eye
I said I’m coming from the south; O Susanna, don’t you cry
O Susanna, O don’t you cry for me
For I come from Alabama with a banjo on my knee

Well, soon I’ll be in New Orleans and then I’ll look around
And when I find my gal Susanne I’ll fall upon the ground
But if I do not find her there then I will surely die
And when I’m dead and buried, Lord, O Susanna don’t you cry
O Susanna, O don’t you cry for me
For I come from Alabama with a banjo on my knee
