<br>

BERTIE & COMPANY<br>

Who's the man you've all been sitting there anticipating?<br>

Whos' the man with his instrument ready, willing and waiting?<br>

Who's the man for whom your breath has been eagerly baiting?<br>

If I hadn't already confessed it<br>

You'd no doubt already have guessed it<br>

Banjo boy, banjo boy, play a number for me<br>

Won't you play that melody?<br>

When you start your plain' - Mama starts a-swayin'<br>

She's right there with 'em - stompin' that rhythym<br>

Banjo boy, banjo boy, play the razzamatazz<br>

You're the sunny southland's king<br>

You set Dixie hummin' it - when you started strummin' it<br>

See those fingers goin'<br>

When you start to syncopate<br>

Songbirds seem to orchestrate<br>

The Swanee stops it's flowin'<br>

Just hear him play<br>

Who can plunk your heartstrings full of joy<br>

That's banjo boy <br>

<br>

COMPANY<br>

Hear him go<br>

Don't you know<br>

Love him so<br>

Let him swing<br>

And do his thing<br>

He's the king<br>

Ring-a-ding <br>

<br>

BERTIE & COMPANY<br>

Banjo boy, banjo boy, you're the musical sun<br>

In those southern sunny skies<br>

Feet will start their fidgets - see those magic digits<br>

Hands are a clappin' - fingers a snappin'<br>

Banjo boy, banjo boy, play that favourite tune<br>

That the old folks love to sing<br>

Can't you hear the people cry<br>

Wann see those fingers fly <br>

<br>

COMPANY<br>

Listen to him playin'<br>

Can't you hear those children roar<br>

Dixie's shoutin' out for more<br>

Hear the steamboats blowin'<br>

Eight to the bar<br>

Who's that cotton pickin' hunk of joy?<br>

That golden kid that fashion can't destroy?<br>

Whose name they shout from Maine to Illinois?<br>

That's banjo boy!<br>

Banjo boy! <br>

<br>
