Oh! Susanna

[Verse 1]

Well I come from Alabama

With my banjo on my knee

And I'm bound for Louisiana

My own true love for to see

[Verse 2]

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

[Chorus]

I said, oh! Susanna

Now you don't you cry for me

As I come from Alabama

With this banjo on my knee

[Verse 3]

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

[Verse 4]

Now the buckwheat cake was in her mouth

The tear was in her eye

I said that I come from Dixie Land

Suzanne, don't you break down and cry

[Chorus]
