2nd South Carolina String Band – Oh! Susanna Lyrics

Artist: 2nd South Carolina String Band
Song: Oh! Susanna

Well i come from alabama with my banjo on my knee
And i’m going to louisiana, my true love for to see
Well it rained all night the day i left, the weather it was dry
And the sun so hot, i froze to death, susanna, don’t you cry

Oh, susanna, don’t you cry for me
For i come from alabama with my banjo on my knee
When i jumped aboard the telegraph and traveled down the river
The electric fluid magnified and killed five hundred chigger

When the bullgine bust, the horse ran off, i really thought i’d die
So i shut my eyes to hold my breath, susanna, don’t you cry
Oh, susanna, don’t you cry for me
For i come from alabama with my banjo on my knee

Now i had a dream the other night when everything was still
And i thought i saw susanna she was coming down the hill
Now the buckwheat cake was in her mouth and the tear was in her eye
So i said “i’m coming from the south, susanna, don’t you cry”

Oh, susanna, don’t you cry for me
For i come from alabama with my banjo on my knee
Now i soon will be in new orleans and then i’ll look around
When at last i find susanna, i will fall upon the ground

But if i can’t ever find her, then i think i’ll surely die
When i’m dead, and gone, and buried – susanna, don’t you cry
Oh, susanna, don’t you cry for me
For i come from alabama with my banjo on my knee

Oh, susanna, don’t you cry for me
For i come from alabama with my banjo on my knee
