Ryan Shupe & Rubberband - Banjo Boy lyrics

I want to be a rock star, and travel really far, and buy me a big expensive car.

And make lots of money and find me a honey.

And live in nice big house where it's sunny.

With a pool and I'll be cool.

I'll always have a gig cause I'll be big.

I'll have parties and friends and places to go,

The only problem is I play the banjo.

I play the banjo.

I'm a post Hee-Haw mover, a funkadelic punk-rock groover,

A cross between Bela Fleck,

And Eddie Vedder but better.

I'll win a Grammy for the way I pick.

I'll be an instrumental monster with tons of new licks,

And all the babes will love me, sell-out shows,

The only problem is I play the banjo.

I play the banjo.

(Chorus:)

Well I play the banjo,

Play the banjo,

Play the banjo,

I play the banjo.

I play the banjo.

(Repeat Chorus once.)

I say hear me boys, here my rhyme,

I'm picking on the banjo all the time.

I say hear me boys, here my song,

Picking on the banjo all day long.

Pick.

I'll buy a leer jet, and a limousine,

And everywhere I go my fans will scream,

"Hey banjo boy, we love you,

I wish that we could all play the banjo too."

And you'll see me on the tv talk show,

With Dave and Conan and Jay Leno,

The only problem is I play the banjo.

(Repeat Chorus 3 times.)

I play the banjo,

Play the banjo,

Play the banjo,

I play the banjo.
