And I'm bound for Louisiana, my own true love for to see
It did rain all night the day I left
The weather was bone dry
The sun was so hot I froze myself
Suzanne, don't you go on and cry
I said, oh, Susannah
Now, don't you cry for me
As I come from Alabama with this banjo on my knee
Well I had myself a dream the other night
When everything was still
I dreamed that I saw my girl Suzanne
She was coming around the hill
Now, the buckwheat cake was in her mouth
A tear was in her eye
I said, that I come from Dixie land
Suzanne, don't you break down and cry
I said, oh, Susannah
Now, don't you cry for me
Cause I come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee
Well I come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee And I'm bound for Louisiana, my own true love for to see It did rain all night the day I left The weather was bone dry The sun was so hot I froze myself Suzanne, don't you go on and cry I said, oh, Susannah Now, don't you cry for me As I come from Alabama with this banjo on my knee Well I had myself a dream the other night When everything was still I dreamed that I saw my girl Suzanne She was coming around the hill Now, the buckwheat cake was in her mouth A tear was in her eye I said, that I come from Dixie land Suzanne, don't you break down and cry I said, oh, Susannah Now, don't you cry for me Cause I come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee Explain Request ×
