I'm a rovin' little banjo picker up from Alabam Where I used to hoe the cotton and the cane Well, the old folks they will miss me when they shout for little Sam And I am not a-(gonna) live with them again
Well, I left them in the night when the moon was shinin' bright Struck out with a banjer in my hand Oh I left my only brother and my dear old aged mother And I run away to join this little band
Well, I pick and sing both night and day, I'm workin' mighty hard Makin' all the money that I can When I go back home, I sho' go back in style The old folks will be proud of Banjo Sam
Well, I'm a-savin' every cent, cept'n what I go and spend I'm a-goin' back to see them all again Oh to see my only brother and my dear old aged mother They'll say, "Welcome home, little Banjo Sam!"
Now the cabin which I lived in was sittin' on a hill And the mockingbird a-singin' on the tree There I'll build myself a mansion in that spot that I love well Let Mother and my brother live with me
Well, when the work is o'er, we will gather 'round the door Of that mansion, all the kinfolks in a jam Oh, we'll keep the banjo ringin' and we'll listen to the singin' They'll say, "Welcome home, little Banjo Sam!"Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
