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,

As I Come From Alabama With This Banjo On My Knee.
