Oh, I come from Alabam
With my banjo on my knee
I'm going to Louisian
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
Susann', don't you cry
Oh, Susann
Don't you cry for me
For I come from Alabam
With my banjo on my knee
Oh, Susann
Don't you cry for me
For I come from Alabam
With my banjo on my knee
I had a dream the other night
When everything was still
I thought I saw Susann
Coming down the hill
A buckwheat cake was in her mouth
A tear was in her eye
I said, I'm coming from Dixieland
Susann', don't you cry
Oh, Susann
Don't you cry for me
For I come from Alabam
With my banjo on my knee
Oh, Susann
Don't you cry for me
For I come from Alabam
With my banjo on my knee
I soon will be in New Orleans
And then I'll look around
And when I find my gal Susann
I'll fall upon the ground
But if I don't find her
This man'll surely die
And when I'm dead and buried
Susann', don't you cry
Oh, Susann
Don't you cry for me
For I come from Alabam
With my banjo on my knee
Oh, Susann
Don't you cry for me
For I come from Alabam
With my banjo on my knee
I had a dream the other night
When everything was still
I thought I saw Susann
Coming up the hill
A buckwheat cake was in her mouth
A tear was in her eye
I said, I'm coming from Dixieland
Susann', don't you cry
Oh, Susann
Don't you cry for me
For I come from Alabam
With my banjo on my knee
Oh, Susann
Don't you cry for me
For I come from Alabam
With my banjo on my knee
