I had a dream the other night, When everything was still;
I thought I saw Susanna dear, A-coming down the hill.
The buckwheat cake was in her mouth, The tear was in her eye,
Said I, I'm coming from the south, Susanna don't you cry.

| come from Al a | bama with my | banjo on my | knee. |

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, This darkey'll surely die,
And when I'm dead and buried, Susanna don't you cry.

| Oh! Su | sanna, oh | don't you cry for | me; for I |

| come from Al a | bama with my | banjo on my | knee. |
