My father has an old guitar and he plays me folk songs[00:00:00]

My father has an old guitar and he plays me folk songs[00:00:15]

There is nothing I want more than to play like him[00:00:21]

He goes to the basement and builds me a cookie-tin banjo[00:00:26]

He builds me a cookie-tin banjo the strings are made of rubber bands[00:00:31]

The strap is an old red neck tie[00:00:39]

The body is the big round lid of a metal cookie-tin[00:00:41]

When he plays his old guitar I play my cookie-tin banjo[00:00:46]

I play my cookie-tin banjo right along with him[00:00:50]

The more we play together[00:01:08]

The more I fall in love with music[00:01:09]

And I realize that my banjo is a toy that I've outgrown[00:01:12]

I want strings of steel and something new and something real[00:01:18]

So he gets me a guitar to call my own[00:01:22]

Then dad says to me on this fine afternoon[00:01:27]

Let's sit on the stairs I'll teach you a tune[00:01:32]

He hands me a pick one that's little and black[00:01:36]

He shows me the g chord I've never looked back[00:01:41]

Now buried somewhere in a closet is my cookie-tin banjo[00:01:45]

In my arms is my guitar my greatest source of joy[00:01:52]

For the life that I have now I'm grateful to my father[00:01:57]

He gave the gift of music to his boy[00:02:03]

It started with a simple homemade toy[00:02:08]
