I come from Alabama with my 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 Susanna don't you cry 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 dreamed I saw Susanna coming down the hill A red-red was in her cheek, a tear was in her eye I said to her, Susanna, girl, Susanna, don't you cry Oh, Susanna, don't you cry for me I come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee Oh, Susanna, don't you cry for me I come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee
