I did this song in 1988 from a book of children's songs. The book spelled it Suzanna, but the Internet consensus seems to be Susanna today.

I remember back in elementary everyone in my class was so into this song

Ooh I think that you loved the little curtsy the nice And gentle Daisy and the mighty and kickey Amy

Don't forget the original singer of the song recorded it on Columbia Records in the 20s. It is the grand father of Nikki Hornsby who is also a grammy voting member singer songwriter recording artist. View online at wikipedia(dot)org

I came from Salem City with my wash bowl on my knee I'm going to California, the gold dust for to see
It rained all night the day I left, the weather it was dry
The sun's so hot I froze to death. Oh brothers don't you cry

Chorus
Oh California, that's the place for me.
I'm off to San Francisco with my wash bowl on my knee

I jumped on board the Lisa ship and traveled o'er the sea And every time I thought of home, I wished it wasn't me The vessel reared like any horse that had of oats a wealth
I found it wouldn't throw me, so I thought I'd throw myself.(Chorus)

I thought of all the pleasant times we had together here,
I thought I ought to cry a bit but couldn't shed a tear.
The pilot's bread was in my mouth, the gold dust in my eye Although I'm going far away, dear brothers don't you cry (Chorus

And when I get to Frisco boys, it's then I'll look around.
And when I see the gold lumps there, I'll pick them off the ground.
We'll scrape the mountains clean me boys, we'll drain the rivers dry,
A pocket full of rocks bring home, Oh brothers don't you cry (Chorus)
