Softly and far away, I can hear banjos play,
Picking and strumming old tunes.
Sometimes a waltz is heard, sometimes Bye Bye Blackbird,
In the breeze, down thru the trees.
Fast songs, slow songs, happy songs, sing-alongs,
Lover, Blue Skies, Ain't She Sweet, Sunrise.
Songs of the good old days, I can hear banjos play,
Softly and so far away.
