America Singing
Ballad of America Volume 2

Oh Susanna!
lyrics / about this song / video

chorus:

Oh, Susanna
Oh, don't you cry for me
For I'm goin' to Louisiana
With my banjo on my knee

verses:

I come from Alabama
With my 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 dry
The sun so hot I froze to death
Susanna, don't you cry

I had a dream the other night
When everything was still
I thought I saw Susanna
A-coming down the hill

A red, red rose was in her hand
The tear was in her eye
I said, "I come from Dixie land
Susanna, don't you cry"

I soon will be in New Orleans
And then I'll look around
And when I find Susanna
I'll fall upon the ground

But if I do not find her
I will surely die
And when I'm dead and buried
Susanna, don't you cry
