by Arlo Guthrie Uncle Jeff played the fiddle in his Colorado home And I backed him on the banjo so he didn't play alone We've got five generations of a fiddle playin' clan And it's nice to hear a fiddle by a fiddle playin' man Here's another song for Uncle Jeff Guthrie Written on the road by the light of the moon Thinkin' 'bout fiddlin' somewhere up in Michigan I hope that I can make it back to Colorado soon Well my daddy had a fiddle and he laid it on his son Sayin' "Son play the fiddle like your fiddlin' folks done" Well it's hard to Iearn to fiddle When you're fiddlin' on the run But fiddlin' is fiddlin', and fiddlin' is fun
