I'd love to hear my daddy play once again
All the songs that he taught me when I was a kid
John Henry Old Shep and Faded love
I Fall To Pieces and on the Wings Of A Dove.

Just a few chords on the banjo that was all he knew
but in the eyes of a child man his fingers flew
I practiced and I practiced till I got it right
Packed up everything and just took off one night.

--- Instrumental ---

I made it from the beer joints to the Opry stage
He said the only difference is what you're gettin' paid
He didn't care that everybody knew my name
He said it's all for nothin' if you don't stay the same.

And when he died the preacher cried said he's the lucky one
He's walkin' hand in hand with God's only son
My faith and common sense tell me the preacher's right
But I'd love to hear the banjo ring for me tonight.

I will honor my father with these words I write down
And as long as I remember him he'll always be around
And the pain of losing him cuts like a Randall knife
I learned a few chords on the banjo was the key to life.

Yeah the pain of losing him cuts like a Randall knife
I learned a few chords on the banjo was the key to life.

--- Instrumental to fade ---

Mirror lyrics:

--- Instrumental to fade ---

I learned a few chords on the banjo was the key to life.
Yeah the pain of losing him cuts like a Randall knife

I learned a few chords on the banjo was the key to life.
And the pain of losing him cuts like a Randall knife
And as long as I remember him he'll always be around
I will honor my father with these words I write down

But I'd love to hear the banjo ring for me tonight.
My faith and common sense tell me the preacher's right
He's walkin' hand in hand with God's only son
And when he died the preacher cried said he's the lucky one

He said it's all for nothin' if you don't stay the same.
He didn't care that everybody knew my name
He said the only difference is what you're gettin' paid
I made it from the beer joints to the Opry stage

--- Instrumental ---

Packed up everything and just took off one night.
I practiced and I practiced till I got it right
but in the eyes of a child man his fingers flew
Just a few chords on the banjo that was all he knew

I Fall To Pieces and on the Wings Of A Dove.
John Henry Old Shep and Faded love
All the songs that he taught me when I was a kid
I'd love to hear my daddy play once again
