When Gran’ma Plays the Banjo

Roy Wood

[Verse 1]
When Grandma plays the banjo
She sure do play it hot
When Grandma plays the banjo
She gives it all she's got
And she goes:

[Banjo Solo]

[Verse 2]
My papa said she had the will
To practice every day
She must have worn her fingers out
When learning how to play
Now she goes:

[Banjo Solo]

[Verse 3]
My cousin Luke’s a real professional
Shout-down jealous man
When he picks up the old banjo
He plays it really grand
When he goes:

[Banjo Solo]
Yeah
Ugh
Well, I haven't played it for a couple of weeks

[Verse 4]
The young cowboys could really laugh
'Cause she began to play
"You kids just don’t know where it's at!"
My Grandma used to say

[Verse 5]
Although that lady's slow and old
With pinned-up silver hair
When she get's really movin'
She don't need no rockin' chair
She just goes:

[Banjo Solo]

[Verse 1]
When Grandma plays the banjo
She sure do play it hot
When Grandma plays the banjo
She gives it all she's got
And she goes:

[Banjo Solo]

[Outro]
One, two, three, four
Thank you, thank you
Thank you, thank you
Okay, you guys
Thank you
