Get out your junkshop banjo get out your walkin' shoes
Fall in with the band you can play too
You don't have to be real good now you don't have to know the songs
Fall in with the band and play along.

Maybe we can get the people to singin' songs that they never sung
Get to them one by one I hope they listen
Maybe if we keep 'em busy singin' they won't have time to hate
Maybe we can get 'em straight if they listen.

March out across the desert march out across the sea
Fall in with the band and come with me
You don't have to sign no papers you don't have to pay no dues
Fall in with the band you just can't lose.

Maybe we can get the people to singin' songs that they never sung
Get to them one by one I hope they listen
Maybe if we keep 'em busy singin' they won't have time to hate
Maybe we can get 'em straight if they listen.
