Jimmie Driftwood - Banjer Pickin' Man lyrics
When I was a boy I lived in Kentucky, I came from a place where the Nolichucky ran Didn't have a dime but I guessed I was lucky, -I lived in a house with a banjer pickin' man. Ma plowed the corn and the beans and the taters, Ma chopped the wood and tended to the farm, Poor old pa had to visit with the neighbors, Everywhere'd he went he had his banjer on his arm, His eyes were blue and his hair was yeller, the boys all called him Nolichucky Dan, The girls all said he was a good lookin' feller, Everybody loved that banjer pickin' man. Everybody loved that banjer pickin' man, x4 Too many kids started ma to gettin' busy, Along came another'n and she began to weep, Woulda bin more but Pa was too busy Playin' on his banjer when he oughtta bin asleep Pa was playin' one night about eleven, Along came an angel and carried him away, Now they say he's a-playin' up in heaven, Some folks said they hear'd him everyday. chorus. Hear I sit just a-plankin' and a-plinkin', Strummin' and a-thumbin' like a Ethiopian, Got me a gal and I begin t'thinkin' Someday I'm gwinna be a banjer pickin' man. |
