when gran'ma plays the banjo - roy wood lyrics
when grandma plays the banjo
she sure does play it hot
when grandma plays the banjo
she gives it all she’s got
she goes:
(bouncing banjo instrumental)
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 instrumental)
woo!
my cousin luke’s a real professional
shout-down jealous man
when he picks of the old banjo
he plays it really grand
when he goes:
(horrible, off-beat, out of key version of “good king wenceslaus”)
yeah!
crowd: ugh!
luke (in an apologetic voice): well i haven’t played it for a couple of weeks…
the young cowboys could really laugh
when she began to play
“you kids don’t know where it’s at!”
my grandma used to say
although that lady’s old and slow
with pinned-up silver hair
when she get’s really movin’
she don’t need no rocking chair
she just goes:
(banjo instrumental) woo hoo!
crowd: ooooh!
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:
(extrended banjo instrumental)
woo!
woo hoo!
one two three four!
(banjo instrumental in double time)
woo hoo!
grandma: thank you, thank you!
