The man with the banjo

Who's that comin', who's that strummin'?
That's the man with the banjo
For a penny he'll play any
Song that's happy and gay

Folks all smile and stop a while
Because the man with the banjo
Makes their troubles burst like bubbles
Chasing worries away

See the children running after
While he plays his merry song
All their hearts are filled with laughter
As they tag along.

Shadows fallin', sandman's callin'
There goes the man with the banjo
Gaily hummin', softly strummin'
On his merry old way

Instrumental break, featuring banjo solo.

See the children running after,
While he plays his merry song.
All their hearts are filled with laughter,
(as they tag along.)

Shadows fallin', sandman's callin'
There goes the man with the banjo
Gaily hummin', softly strummin'
On his merry old way
