The time is never dreary,
If a person never moans,
A hoofer’s never weary
With the rattlin’ of the bones.
Ring, ring the banjo!
I like that good old song.
Come again, good fortune,
Oh! where you been so long?
Oh! never count the bubbles
When there’s water in the spring,
A trav’ler’s got no troubles
If they’ve got this song to sing.
Ring, ring the banjo!
I like that good old song,
Come again, good fortune,
Oh! where you been so long?
