Polka on a Banjo Flatt & Scruggs

Polka on a Banjo
Flatt and Scruggs

There's a sweet young Miss, I love to kiss, but listen close and hear me
She's not my only love, I have another love, and she'll just have to share me
But she?s five foot tall, high heel and all, she already knows
She had some competition, in a composition, known as polka on an old banjo

Chorus
Polka on a banjo, make that five string hot
Polka on a banjo, give it all you've got
Polka on a banjo, watch them fingers go
Of all the songs I guess, the one that I love best

Is the polka on an old banjo

(Banjo Solo)

And when they start the band, she takes me by the hand, and I begin to swing her
She knows I never miss, a chance to steal a kiss, or dance the polka with her
I don't speak a word ,once I have heard, the one thing I love so
She's caught in the middle, she played the second fiddle, to a polka on an old banjo

Chorus - End
