Oh Susanna

Stephen Foster

        G                                      D 
1.I've come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee
       G                               D      G 
  I'm going to Louisiana my true love for to see
                                                          D 
  it rained all night the day I left the weather was so dry
       G                                   D          G 
  the sun so hot I froze to death Susanna don't you cry.
  C              G                 D 
R:Oh Susanna oh don't you cry for me
        G                              D       G 
  I've come from Alabama with my banjo on my knee.
2.I had a dream the other night when everything was still
  I thought I saw Susanna dear a-comin' down the hill
  the red red rose was in her hand the tear was in her eye
  I said:"I'm comin' from the south Susanna don't you cry."
R:3. I soon will be in New Orleans and then I'll look all 'round
  and when I find Susanna I'll fall upon the ground
  but if I do not find her then I'll surely die
  and when I'm dead and buried Susanna don't you cry.
