| I’ve come from Alabama with the banjo on my knee
|
| I’m goin' to Louisiana my true love for to see
|
| It rained all night the day I left the weather it was so dry
|
| The sun so hot I froze to death Suzanna don’t you cry.
|
| Oh Suzanna, don’t you cry for me
|
| I’ve come from Alabama with the banjo on my knee.
|
| --- Imstrumental ---
|
| I had a dream the other night when everything was still
|
| I thought I saw Suzanna dear a comin' down the hill
|
| The buckwheat cake was in her mouth the tear was in her eye
|
| I said I’m comin' from the south Suzanna don’t you cry.
|
| Oh Suzanna, don’t you cry for me
|
| I’ve come from Alabama with the banjo on my knee… |
