Hello Banjo
We country folk love us some bluegrass music. And the major player in bluegrass music is the banjo. My grandfather played the banjo. And my mama told me that she loved to listen to him play. She said he was very good. Unfortunately, my grandfather died before I was born. So, I never had the honor of meeting him or of listening to him play his banjo. I wrote this song with three things in mind: the banjo, the south (where I grew up), and my grandfather. This song is dedicated to him and to all admirers of country music and lovers of bluegrass. To Grandpa Allen. Hope to see you in heaven.

A banjo flying
all around the world.

Hello Banjo!
Hello easy breeze.

Hello Tennessee!
Hello Banjo!
Chorus 2. Still sitting on this stump
wondering if I should jump.
Fly through the air
like a bird.
Oh mercy, mercy me!
What a sight that'd be.
A banjo flying
all around the world.

Chorus 3. I'm not sitting on no stump
wondering if I should jump.
Fly through the air
like a bird.
'Cause Tennessee's my home.
I'll live here and grow old.
My little piece of heaven
on this Earth.
End. *Banjo plays short, joyful outro*
