Oh Susanna [core]

I came from Alabama with a banjo on my 5 knee
I'm 1 goin' to Louisiana, my true love 5 for to 1 see
It rained all night the day I left, the weather it was 5 dry
The 1 sun so hot I froze to death, Susanna, 5 don't you 1 cry

Chorus
4 Oh, Susanna, Oh, 1 don't you cry for 5 me
I 1 come from Alabama with a banjo 5 on my 1 knee

I had a dream the other night when every thing was still
I dreamed I saw Susanna a-coming o'er the hill
The buckwheat cakes was in her mouth, and the tears was in her eye
Says I, I'm coming from the South, Susanna don't you cry

I soon will be in New Orleans, And then I'll look around
And when I find Susanna, I'll fall upon the ground
But if I do not find her, This man'll surely die
And when I'm dead and buried, Susanna, don't you cry
