(Jack Clement)      I didn't think too much about books and schoolin'   'Cause there are more important things to do   I'd just sit out in the yard and pick my ol' banjo   Tryin' to do what the big hillbillies do.      I would sit there by the hour pickin' ''Wildwood Flower.''   Wore my little fingers to the bone   I said, ''I'll never rest till I am the very best   The best banjo picker in this whole country.''      --- Instrumental ---      I said someday I know I'll win my fame   One day all the world will know my name   I'll work so very hard with that ol' banjo   Tryin' to do what the big hillbillies do.      I would sit there all alone tryin' to pick out ''Home, Sweet Home.''   While evrybody played out in the yard   I said, ''I'll never stop till I've reached the very top   When I'm the best banjo picker in this whole country.''      --- Instrumental ---      Well, the years have passed, I haven't change my mind   I still pick the banjo all the time   Because I know someday I'm bound to learn   To play all the things the big hillbillies do.      I just sit here in my shop pickin' ''Foggy Mountain Top.''   Tellin' everybody help theirselves   'Cause before I go to rest I'm gonna be the very best   The best banjo picker in this whole country.      (I'm gonna learn how to play this thing   I'm gonna play the banjo just like Sonny Osborne   Yes sir Sonny, I'm gonna learn...)
