Hey, Mr. Banjo, play a tune for me Play, Mr. Banjo, a happy melody Well, we'll clap our hands and we'll stamp our feet You keep strumming while we keep the beat Play, Mr. Banjo, a pretty melody (Clapping) Hey, Mr. Banjo, plunk another tune Hurry, Mr. Banjo, the night ends all too soon Make your banjo talk while we dance and sing Do a fancy walk while you pick the strings Hey, Mr. Banjo, plunk a tune for me (Banjo instrumental) Hey, Mr. Banjo, play us just one more Play, Mr. Banjo, just like you did before When the stars are high and the moon is low Keep on strumming on your old banjo Hey, Mr. Banjo, play a tune for me Hey, Mr. Banjo, play a tune for me!
