Oh I come from Alabama

With a banjo on my knee

I'm going to Louisiana

My Susannah for to see

It rained all night the day I left

The weather it was dry

The sun so hot I froze to death

Susannah don't you cry

Oh Susannah

Oh don't you cry for me

'Cause I come from Alabama

With a banjo on my knee

I had a dream the other night

When everything was still

I thought I saw Susannah

Just coming down the hill

The red roses was in her hand

The tear was in her eyes

I said I come from the Dixieland

Susannah don't you cry

Oh Susannah

Oh don't you cry for me

'Cause I come from Alabama

With a banjo on my knee

Oh Susannah

Oh don't you cry for me

'Cause I come from Alabama

With a banjo on my knee
