Oh Suzanna

Oh Suzanna - Philippa Knight

I come from Alabama

With a banjo on my knee

I'm going to Louisiana

And 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

Susannah don't you cry

Oh Susannah

Oh don't you cry for me

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

A-coming down the hill

The buckwheat cake was in her mouth

The tear was in her eye

Says I "I'm coming from the south

Susannah don't you cry"

Oh Susannah

Oh don't you cry for me

For I come from Alabama

With a banjo on my knee

I come from Alabama

With a banjo on my knee

I'm going to Louisiana

And 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

Susannah don't you cry

Oh Susannah oh

Don't you cry for me

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

A-coming down the hill

The buckwheat cake was in her mouth

The tear was in her eye

Says I "I'm coming from the south

Susannah don't you cry"

Oh Susannah

Oh don't you cry for me

For I come from Alabama

With a banjo on my knee
