Oh, Susannah
Well I come from Alabama with my banjo on my kneeAnd I'm bound for Louisiana, my own true love for to seeIt did rain all night the day I leftThe weather was bone dryThe sun was so hot I froze myselfSuzanne, don't you go on and cryI said, oh, SusannahNow, don't you cry for meAs I come from Alabama with this banjo on my kneeWell I had myself a dream the other nightWhen everything was stillI dreamed that I saw my girl SuzanneShe was coming around the hillNow, the buckwheat cake was in her mouthA tear was in her eyeI said, that I come from Dixie landSuzanne, don't you break down and cryI said, oh, SusannahNow, don't you cry for meCause I come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee
