Oh Susannah Lyrics

Well I come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee

And I'm bound for Louisiana, my own true love for to see

It did rain all night the day I left

The weather was bone dry

The sun was so hot I froze myself

Suzanne, don't you go on and cry

I said, Oh, Suzannah

Now, don't you cry for me

As I come from Alabama with this banjo on my knee

Well I had myself a dream the other night

When everything was still

I dreamed that I saw my girl Suzanne

She was coming around the hill

Now, the buckwheat cake was in her mouth

A tear was in her eye

I said, that I come from Dixie land

Suzanne, don't you break down and cry

I said, Oh, Suzannah

Now, don't you cry for me

'Cause I come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee
