The Banjo Boy and Brown Eyed Girl

There lived once a banjo boy A blue-sky eyed banjo boy who played his banjo every night. There lived once a brown eyed girl with her skin so smooth and fair who sang always by his side A duet they were, with music to share and young love upon their mind. All the crowd gathered to their tunes they cheered with a message to the world. Eves could be so warm when the banjo-boy placed his fingers on each chord Days could be so bright with the girl's soft voice like the sun 's solacing light. What a bliss on earth Lifted spirits heard and gestures ever kind. There lived once a banjo boy a blue-sky eyed banjo boy who played banjo every night There lived once a brown -eyed girl with her skin so smooth and fair who sang always by his side.
Just a light -lyric fun poem... :) PS- Inspired by a comment on my Guitar Boy's poem where Someone :) Suggested Banjo music is better than guitar's. So to all music and Banjo fans..A little scribble ...that rolled on my mind.

Hi Charm...I like the feathery feel of these lyrics, and the young love that bloomed between the these two. Makes you wonder what became of them! // as an aside, in front of the Savoy there's always Benny playing his banjo:) Regards // paul
