Well, I come from Alabama, with the banjo on my knee
I'm going to Louisiana, Susannah for to see
Oh, Susannah, oh, don't you cry for me
'Cause I come from Alabama, with the banjo on my knee
Well, it rained so hard the night I left, the weather it was dry
And it was so hot, I froze to death, Susannah, don't you cry
Oh, Susannah, oh, don't you cry for me
'Cause I come from Alabama, with the banjo on my knee
Well, I come from Alabama, with the banjo on my knee
And I'm going to Louisiana, Susannah for to see
Oh, Susannah, oh, don't you cry for me
'Cause I come from Alabama, with the banjo on my knee
Well, it rained so hard the night I left, the weather it was dry
And it was so hot, I froze to death, Susannah, don't you cry
Oh, Susannah, oh, don't you cry for me
'Cause I come from Alabama, with the banjo on my knee
