I come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee
I'm going to Lousiana, my true love for to see
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, don't you cry for me
I come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee.

I had a dream the other night, when everything was still
I thought I saw Susanna, a'comin' down the hill
A buckwheat cake was in her mouth, a tear was in her eye.
I'm a'comin' from the South, Susanna don't you cry.
[Chorus]
