Banjo Boy

 

Banjo boy

She’s dressed for you

In that yellow cotton dress

There’s things you’d do for her

Crimes you’d never confess

 

Banjo boy she’d forget you

Banjo boy she won’t visit you

If you go to prison

 

Banjo boy you had a hard go

And she warms you like the sun

Remember how the wind blows

And tornados that make you run

 

Banjo boy she’ll forget you

Banjo boy she won’t visit you

If you go to prison

 

Banjo boy

You love the sweet notes

And she sounds like music in your ears

Play the song toward Heaven

And pray an angel appears

 

Cause banjo boy

She’ll forget you

Banjo boy she’ll only hurt you

Banjo boy she’ll leave you

Banjo boy she won’t visit you

If you go to prison

 

Banjo boy she’s dressed for you

In that yellow cotton dress

There’s things you’d do for her

Crimes you’d never confess

 

Banjo boy she’ll forget you

Banjo boy she won’t visit you

If you go to prison

 

Banjo boy you’ve had a hard go

And she warms you like the sun

But remember how the wind blows

And tornados that make you run

 

Banjo boy she’ll forget you

Banjo boy she won’t visit you

If you go to prison

 

Banjo boy you love the sweet notes

And she sounds like music in your ear

Play the song toward Heaven

And pray an angel appears
