If this old fiddle could talk if this old fiddle could sing

Man if this old fiddle could only talk it could tell

You some wondrous things talk to me fiddle

Tell me about when you came across the sea

In the hands of a Jewish immigrant who was

Longing to be free you were part of his life

For forty years through times both lean and fat

And he raised his family and lived out his days

In a New York tenement flat talk to me fiddle

Talk to me fiddle tell me about how that Cajun

Fiddlin' man found you in a pawn shop and took

You back down to the Louisiana bayou land

You knew his wife and you knew his kids

And you watched his family grow and you

Played your heart out Cajun style at the Louisiana Fais Do Do

Then a big shot Yankee gambler found you

Down in New Orleans and took you up the

River on the Mississippi Queen then there

Came the day that you were all that he had left to lose

And a black man won you in a poker game

And taught you how to play the blues cry for me fiddle

Then a young man from the mountains of Kentucky came along

And he bought you for a dollar took you all away back home

He gave you to his grandpa on his golden wedding day

And people had come from miles around just to hear the old man play

Dance for them fiddle

Then a hobo from Biloxi found you living in the rain

And he got himself a free ride on a west-bound cattle train

You got off in Texas where they play that western swing

Where the people do the two-step and old Bob Wills was the king

Swing for me fiddle

If this old fiddle could talk if this old fiddle could sing

Man if this old fiddle could only talk it could tell

You some wondrous things you've been bouncing around America

From sea to shining sea now your traveling days are over fiddle

'Cause you belong to me
