| lyric | I came from Alabama
wid my banjo on my knee
I’m g’wan to Louisana.
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;
Suanne don’t you cry.
Ref. Oh. Suanna Oh! don’t you cry for me,
I’ve come from Alabama
wid my banjo on my knee.

1. I come from Alabama,
with my banjo on my knee
I’m goin’ to Louisiana,
my Susanna for to see.
Ref. Oh. Suanna Oh! don’t you cry for me,
For I’m going’ to Louisiana
with my banjo on my knee.
2. It rained all night, the day I left,
the weather it was dry,
the sun so hot I froze of death
Susanne, don’t you cry!
3. I had a dream the other night,
when ev’rything ws still,
I thought I saw Susanna dear
a-coming down the hill. |
