In New York Town

(Lee Hoffman/Dick Greenhaus ca. 1957)



In New York town, there did dwell

A lovely youth who frailed quite well

He bought himself a Mastertone

And now he's up and left me all alone



cho:

Wide and deep my grave shall be

With the wild bluegrassers picking over me.



Oh once he wore his banjo low

And sang those songs we all do know,

Now he wears his banjo high

He'll pick a tune by Scruggs and pass me by.



Oh once he was a Seegerite

He'd play for me both day and night.

Now that he just picks Scruggs so loud

He spends his time with that bluegrassing crowd.



There is a Square in New York town

Where my love goes and stands around,

He picks his banjo every day

And "Hit Parade of Love" is all he'll play.



Note: Some things don't change.
