Oh! Susannah - Al Jolson

Oh i come from alabama with my banjo on my knee

I'm going to louisiana

My true love for to see

It rained so hard the day i left

The weather it was dry

The sun so hot i froze to death

Susanna don't you cry

Oh susanna don't you cry for me

I come from alabama with my banjo on my knee

Oh susanna don't you cry for me

I come from alabama with my banjo on my knee

Oh i jumped aboard the telegraph and trabbeled down de ribber

De lectrie fluid magnified

And killed five hundred nigger

De bullgine bust de hoss ran off

I really thought i'd die

I shut my eyes to hold my bref

Susanna don't you cry

Oh susanna don't you cry for me

I come from alabama with my banjo on my knee

I had a dream the other night when everything was still

I thought i saw susanna

A coming down the hill

The buckwheat cake was in her mouth

The tear was in her eye

Says i 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

I'll look all round and round

And when i find susanna

I'll fall right on the ground

But if i do not find her

I know i'll surely die

And when i'm dead 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
