I came from alabama
Wid my banjo on my knee,
Im gwan to louisiana
My true love for to see,
It raind all night the day i left,
The weather it was dry,
The sun so hot i frose to death;
Susanna, don't you cry.

Chorus:
Oh! susanna, oh! don't you cry for me,
Ive come from alabama, wid my banjo on my knee.

I jumped aboard de telegraph,
And trabbelled down de ribber,
De lectrie fluid magnified,
And killed five hundred nigger
De bullgine bust, de horse run off,
I realy thought id die;
I shut my eyes to hold my breath,
Susanna, don't you cry.

Chorus:

I had a dream de odder night
When ebery ting was still;
I thought i saw susanna,
A coming down de hill.
The buckwheat cake war in her mouth,
The tear was in her eye,
Says im coming from de south,
Susanna, don't you cry.

Chorus:

I scon will be in new orleans,
And den ill look all round,
And when i find susanna,
I fall upon the ground.
But if i do not find her,
Dis darkie i surely die,
And when im dead and buried,
Susanna, don't you cry.
