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.
