Susanna
Susanna
I had a dream the other night
Everything was still
I dreamed I saw susanna
She was coming down the hill
Oh oh oh susanna, don't you cry for me
'Cause I come from alabama with my b-a-n-j-o on
My knee
Buckwheat cake was in her mouth
The tear was in her eye
Said I, I'm coming from the south
Susanna, don't you cry
Oh susanna, don't you cry for me
'Cause I come from alabama with my b-a-n-j-o on
My knee
Rained all night the day I left
The weather, it was dry
Sun so hot I froze to death
Susanna, don't you cry
Oh oh oh susanna, don't you cry for me
'Cause I come from alabama with my b-a-n-j-o on
My knee
I had a dream the other night
That everything was still
I dreamed I saw susanna
She was coming down the hill
Oh oh oh susanna, don't you cry for me
'Cause I come from alabama with my b-a-n-j-o on
My knee
Well I come from alabama
With my banjo on my knee
I'm gone to louisiana,
My true love for to see
Oh oh oh susanna, don't you cry for me
'Cause I come from alabama with my b-a-n-j-o on
My knee
Yeah I come from alabama with my b-a-n-j-o on
My knee
Yeah I come from alabama with my b-a-n-j-o on
My knee
I come from alabama with my b-a-n-j-o on my
Knee
I come from alabama with my b-a-n-j-o on my
