Polka on the Banjo
As by Flatt & Scruggs - Seth Mulder & Midnight Run

(C)There's a sweet young Miss
That I'd love to kiss
But listen, folks, and (G7)hear me
She's not my only love
I have another love
And she'll just have to (C)share me

But she's five foot tall
In high heels and all
She already (F)knows
She has a competition
(C)And a composition
Called as (G7)Polka on an old ban(C)jo

   (F///) Hey! Polka on the banjo, make that five strings (C7)hot!
   Polka on the banjo, give it all you've (F)got
   Polka on the banjo, watch them fingers (Bb)go
   Of all the songs I guess, the (F)one that I love best
   Is a (C)polka on an old ban(F)jo (G7 stop!)

mandolin solo:
C/// - C/// - C/// - G7/// -
G/// - G/// - G/// - C/// -
C/// - C/// - C7 /// - F/// -
F/// - C/// - G7/// - C/// - C/// -


And (C)when then starts the band
She takes me by the hand
And I--- begin to (G7)swing her
She knows I never miss
A chance to steal a kiss
Or dance the Polka (C)with her

But I don't speak a word
Once I have heard
The one song I love (F)so
She has caught in the middle
She has (C)played the second fiddle
To a (G7)Polka on an old ban(C)jo

   (F///) Hey! Polka on the banjo, make that five strings (C7)hot!
   Polka on the banjo, give it all you've (F)got
   Polka on the banjo, watch them fingers (Bb)go
   Of all the songs I guess, the (F)one that I love best
   Is a (C)polka on an old ban(F)jo///-C-F stop
