Banjoman

Banjo man
Trouble born
Burnin' down that field of corn
Look all night
But you was gone
Where you banjo man?

Get up boy
Captain say
Leave that banjo where it lay
Bound your hands
Took you away
Where you banjo man?

Banjo man
Banjo man
Never seen a banjo in your hand

Mama got ways
Like a baby child
Like a baby child
My mama's wild
And I don't know how
It might have been
If she hadn't have turned
Her back on me

Little girl
Thin and grown
Here and there and on beyond
Run on down to the lily pond
To see your banjo man

Deep inside the Georgia pine
Hobblin' around in ragged time
In the moon that banjo shine
Shine on, banjo man

Banjo man
Banjo man
Never seen a banjo in your hand
Never seen a banjo in your hand

Mama got ways
Like a baby child
Like a baby child
My mama's wild
And I don't know how
It might have been
If she hadn't have turned her back on me

Banjo man
Of Africa
Why they call you banjo man
Never seen a banjo in your hand
Where you, banjo man
