Oh Susanna - The Be Good Tanyas

I come from Alabama

With my banjo on my knee

I’m going to Louisiana

Susanna for to see

It rained all night

The day I left

The weather it was dry

The sun so hot

I froze myself

But Susanna, don’t you cry

Oh, Susanna

Don’t you cry for me

I come from Alabama

With my banjo on my knee

I had a dream the other night

When everything was still

I thought I saw Susanna

Coming down that hill

The buckwheat cake

Was in her mouth

The tear was in her eye

Says I, I’m coming from the south

Susanna, don’t you cry

Oh, Susanna

Don’t you cry for me

I come from Alabama

With my banjo on my knee

Oh, Susanna

Don’t you cry for me

I come from Alabama

With my banjo on my knee
