There’s an old new fad to be had
From the long-gone days of your grandpa’s dad
String a drum and strum on your gut
It’ll dig you up from a dirty rut
Throw down, tune it up!
Find a friend with wine and a whiskey cup
Break it out! Bring it back!
Strut around your town with a gunny sack…
Everybody’s got a banjo!
If you mean it when you sling it then you ain’t no fool
Everybody’s got a banjo!
If you don’t know how to play it well it still looks…
You can freak out for an antique
wait a hundred years for to reach its peak
Given time you’ll be kickin’ up dust
but a mean clawhammer, It’ll never rust
Hold 'em up! Hang 'er on!
Bring a folked-up fiddle in you can’t go wrong
Line ‘em up, Roll em out!
Well you herd them comin' now you better shout loud…
Everybody’s got a banjo!
If you mean it when you sling it then you ain’t no fool
Everybody’s got a banjo!
If you don’t know how to play it well it still looks cool
From Bozeman to Brooklyn,
Melbourne to Maine
Everybilly this side if Dixie
diggin up the bluegrass grain
In the Smokies, on the subway,
on the runway and the plains
Anybilly gunnin’ for that old-time fame
Everybody’s got a banjo!
If you mean it when you sling it then you ain’t no fool
If you can’t afford one make it like a canjo
If you don’t know how to play it well it still looks cool.
