I t rained all night the day I left,
the weather it was dry;

The sun so hot I froze to death,
Susanna don't you cry.

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.

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.
