Oh! Susanna

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.
