Lyrics:
instrumental interlude
Oh, now I'm gonna find her, for my heart is full of woe
We'll do the things together we did so long ago
We'll play the banjo gaily,
and Tex
Oh, gimme my boots and saddle
Got a hankerin' to be with a banjo on my knee
Strummin' a pretty western tune
There's a gal in Cherokee
waiting the banjos are syncopating
What's that they're saying, what's that they're saying
Well while they keep playing I'm humming and swaying
It's
You coax the blues right out of the horn, Mame,
You charm the husk right off of the corn, Mame,
You've got the banjos strummin' and plunkin' out
like a banjo monk
To the winds that listened the best
Lay down your weary tune, lay down
Lay down the song you strum
And rest yourself beneath
happiness eternally will always be our song of love
[ banjo ]
Love is a feeling keeps me reeling...
politics with the folk songs of our land
Just work on harmony and diction
Play your banjo well
And if you have political convictions keep them to yourself
the time I was five there was no kid alive could ever get the best of me
Born to be a roughneck...
[ banjo ]
Well I started workin' like a regular man
singin', it is song time
The banjos strummin' soft and low
I know that you
Yearn for me too
Swanee ! You're calling me !
[Chorus]
Swanee !
How I
horn steak with lots of ketchup on it I've got Texas in my heart
[ banjo ]
I love the western way they grab in Texas where that Lone Star hat is mighty
forty feet a jump
Ain't never been caught he ain't never been treed some folks say he's a lot like me
[ banjo ]
Saved up my money and I got me some bees
neighbor...
[ el.banjo ]
Now I ain't got no money to give in Sunday school today
I've looked under the rug and everywhere
But when I get my Bible under my arm
I know a lot of folks who are extremely loyal
To a banjo or a nice guitar
But I prefer a greasy can of olive oil
With a broken broom handle by far
want to see there, my little sister Flo',
Keepin' time with Uncle Joe, singing a song and raggin' on his
Old banjo I see my dear old Mother Oh, Lordy,
I'm goin' back to find her,
My heart is full of woe,
We'll sing the songs together
We sang so long ago,
I'll fix the banjo gayly
And sing of long
rather play his banjo in the morning when the moon is scarcely gone
In the dawn the subways comin in the dawn I hear him hummin'
Some old song he wrote
--- Banjo Instrumental ---
Will there be any stars, any stars in my crown
When at evening the sun goeth down
When I wake with the blest in those
Oh Papa-san
Please take me home
Oh Papa-san
Everybody, they wanna go home
So Mamma-san says
You want to play mind-crazed banjo
the carrion crow
Bow and bend to me
Hey Tom Banjo
Hey a laurel
More than laurel
You may sow
More than laurel
You may sow
Hey the laurel
Hey
banjo
The strings were made of twine
The only song that it would play
Was "Trouble on my Mind".
Peaches in the summertime
Apples in the fall
If I
A spiny little island man
Plays a jingling banjo
He's walking down a dirt road
Carrying his radio
To a river where the water meets the sky
Ay ay ay
and Tex
Oh, gimme my boots and saddle
Got a hankerin' to be with a banjo on my knee
Strummin' a pretty western tune
There's a gal in Cherokee
Oh Papa-san
Please take me home
Oh Papa-san
Everybody, they wanna go home
So Mamma-san says
You want to play mind-crazed banjo
liquor) corn liquor (corn liquor) what makes you do what you do
Well they feel no pain when you touch their brain corn liquor they love you
[ banjo ]
Well
