| Oh a fair young lady I |
| Used to see when walking buy |
| Caught my love by happenstance |
| Now I rarely catch a glance |
| I wish that I had known her all the while |
| Well I got my courage up |
| On an empty coffee cup |
| Went a callin' at her door |
| She let me in at my implore |
| Well I listened as she told me of the year |
| When far away she lost her love so dear |
| She said my sweetheart in Tennessee |
| Built a banjo just for me |
| Made of wood as red as clay |
| But it hurts my heart to play |
| And he’s gone to find his fortune in the hills |
| And I said this continents too wide |
| For you to spend your life inside |
| Your much too beautiful you know |
| To have no other place to go |
| But she turned her back to me and walked away |
| Well I never cared for banjo anyway |
