Drop your piano, oboe, radio
Go down-road to his Tupelo patio
& Follow the tango of Brigham’s new banjo

A treat as he tickles the twang of his note
Not a trip of the tempo while tapping his toes—What fiddle can diddle
This brittle-bright riddle?

Dance until dark, drop the dust of the city
Don’t ever doubt his dazzling ditty--A gusto, this combo
of drum and string limbo   

Brilliant, beady, bumbling beat
Bouncing my knee, brushing my feet to the bumpkin rhythm
Of  Backyard Brigham
