Johnny played banjo  
But couldn't play well 
The banjo sounded  
Like some demon from Hell 

When he sang baritone  
Everyone would leave the room 
So he sang all alone 
Cursed until the cows came home 

Hermann played guitar  
And sang along too 
Some folk ran  
And some folk flew 

And he badmouthed everyone 
Acted just like Satan's son 
His day's a'gonna come  
When Saint Peter sends him down 

Them weeds in the blue grass, get me a scythe 
I'll cut them down or they'll take our dear lives 
Remember the days and the blue grass growin' 
Now them weeds have taken over 

Georgie played mandolin  
But played too fast 
When Johnny sang the first verse  
Georgie played the last 

Then he got his fiddle out  
And rosined his bow 
And everbody knew then  
It was time to go 

Them weeds in the blue grass, get me a scythe 
I'll cut them down or they'll take our dear lives 
Remember the days and the blue grass growin' 
Now them weeds have taken over 

Jimmy played bass  
And he played real good 
I hope one day I’ll  hear him play  
In a real good group 

Playin' with them nice guys  
Where everthing is dignified 
And you don't curse and lie  
Or bully and terrorise 

Them weeds in the blue grass, get me a scythe 
I'll cut them down or they'll take our dear lives 
Remember the days and the blue grass growin' 
Now them weeds have taken over 

Them weeds in the blue grass, get me a scythe 
I'll cut them down or they'll take our dear lives 
Remember the days and the blue grass growin' 
Now them weeds have taken over 

Them weeds in the blue grass, get me a scythe 
I'll cut them down or they'll take our dear lives 
Remember the days and the blue grass growin' 
Now them weeds have taken over
