Genesis - Banjo Man lyrics

Gimme a song i know, something i can relate to People never criticise the way i play Show me the way to go, i need to make a breakthrough I don't think that i can wait another day It's putting years on me, i'm a young man going grey I don't believe that i can wait another day This simple melody is all i have I make my living that way I make good friends that way Ooh, i really can make no sense of it, as hard as i try Is it something i do wrong please won't you tell me why People all seem to like it and no one knows about it more than i I met a man today who walked in my direction Stopped took off his hat and lit a cigarette He listened carefully to what i had been playing He threw a coin into my hat and walked away Always play just what they want me to Everybody wants the same song If only i could do it in my own way I feel such emotion, emotion, ooh, emotion, emotion, ooh Say gimme a song i know, something i can relate to And no one wants to criticise the way i play I should just say no and play them what i want to Cos i don't think that i can wait another day It's putting years on me, i'm a young man going grey I don't believe that i can wait another day This simple melody is all i have I make my living that way I make good friends that way They feel my emotion, emotion, ooh, ooh Emotion, emotion, ooh
