Oh Suzanna

(Stephen Foster - Kenneth Morey)



I've come from Alabama with the banjo on my knee

I'm goin' to Louisiana now my true love for to see

It rained all night the day I left the weather it was so dry

The sun so hot I froze to death Suzanna don't you cry.



Oh Suzanna, don't you cry for me

I've come from Alabama with the banjo on my knee.



--- Imstrumental ---



I had a dream the other night when everything was still

I thought I saw Suzanna dear a comin' down the hill

A buckwheat cake was in her mouth the tear was in her eye

I said I'm comin' from the south Suzanna don't you cry.



Oh Suzanna, don't you cry for me

I've come from Alabama with the banjo on my knee...
