James Weldon Johnson - A Banjo Song
Work rating: Low

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.
