Well, I come from Alabama
        C           G
With my banjo on my knee
C           
I'm going to Louisiana,
   C         G      C
My true love for to see

It rained all night the day I left
The weather was bone dry
And the sun so hot,I froze to death
Susanna, don't you cry


Chorus:
F 
Oh, Susanna,
C                 G
don't you cry for me
  C
I come from Alabama
        C     G     C 
With my banjo on my knee


Well, I had a dream the other night
When everything was still
I dreamed I saw Susanna
A-coming down the hill

The buckwheat cake was in her mouth
The tear was in her eye
Said I'm coming from the south
Susanna, don't you cry

Chorus

Well, I’ll soon will be in New Orleans and when I do arrive
I’ll go and find Suzanna if she still is still alive
And if I do not find that girl then I will surely die
And when I'm buried in my grave, Suzanna don't you cry

Chorus
