Intro & Oh Susanna

I come from Alabama

With a banjo on my knee

I'm going to Louisiana

My Suzanna for to see



Oh, Suzanna

Oh don't you cry for me

For I come from Alabama with

A banjo on my knee



It rained all night the day I left

The weather it was dry

Sun so hot I froze to death

Suzanna don't you cry



Oh, Suzanna

Oh 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 dreamt I saw Suzanna

Coming down the hill



The buckwheat cake was in her mouth,

The tear was in her eye

Said I-I come from the south

Suzanna don't you cry



Oh, Suzanna

Oh don't you cry for me

For I come from Alabama with

A banjo on my knee



Oh, Suzanna

Oh don't you cry for me

For I come from Alabama with

With a piano on my knee
