lyrics

Some say I’ve been troubled all my days
Some say I’m a slave of wicked lust
By the light of the moon I dance
Don’t want to rock the cradle and cry

I’d rather keep men distracted
With a banjo on my knees
I’d rather keep men distracted
With a banjo on my knees

In the yard under a white oak-tree
I spent the loneliest days of my life
Looking at my sisters growing bellies
At their sons’ dirty faces

Singing sinful and devilish songs
With a banjo on my knees
Singing sinful and devilish songs

My father, he’s full of moonshine whiskey
My mother, she works all day

Hell knows he was handsome
But men tell you more lies
Than stars in the sky

Now I keep men distracted
With a banjo on my knees
With a banjo on my naked knees
