The time is never dreary, if the darky [D] never groans,
[Em] The lady's never weary [G] with the rattle of the bones.
Then come again, Susanna, by the gaslight of the moon,
With Tom, the old piano, and the banjo's out of tune.

Come again, my true love, oh, where you been so long?
Oh, never count the bubbles while [G] there's water in the [C] [G] spring,
The darky have no troubles when he's got this song to sing.

While they roam the old plantation with my true love on the mound.

My master for a napping, he'll never wake again.
