- Verse:
- Where's Mister Banjo, where
can that man be?
- On some old park bench,
a banjo on his knee.
- Playin' all day long and
night time too, He'll play bump-a-ditty-bump for you.
- Play, Mister Banjo,
an old time harmony.
-
- Chorus:
- Hey, Mister Banjo,
play a tune for me,
Play, Mister Banjo, a happy melody.
We'll all clap our hands and we'll stamp our feet,
You keep strummin' while we keep the beat.
Play, Mister Banjo, a pretty melody.
