[Verse 1]
It 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

[Chorus]
Oh, Susannah
Oh, don't you cry for me
I came from Strawberry
With a banjo on my knee

[Verse 2]
I came from Strawberry
With a banjo on my knee
I'm going down to Blackwater
My true love for to see

[Chorus]
Oh, Susannah
Oh, don't you cry for me
I came from Strawberry
With a banjo on my knee
Oh, Susannah
Oh, don't you cry for me
I've come from Strawberry
With a banjo on my knee
