  W'en de banjos wuz a-ringin', An' de darkies wuz a-singin', Oh, wuzen dem de good times sho! All de ole folks would be chattin', An' de pickaninnies pattin', As dey heah'd de feet a-shufflin' 'cross de flo'. An' how we'd dance, an' how we'd sing! Dance tel de day done break. An' how dem banjos dey would ring, An' de cabin flo' would shake! Come along, come along, Come along, come along, Don't you heah dem banjos a-ringin'? Gib a song, gib a song, Gib a song, gib a song, Git yo' feet fixed up fu' a-wingin'. W'ile de banjos dey go plunka, plunka, plunk, We'll dance tel de ole flo' shake; W'ile de feet keep a-goin' chooka, chooka, chook, We'll dance tel de day done break. |
