Subscribe Now: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_c... ------------------------------------------- The song blends together a variety of musical traditions. The opening line refers to a banjo on my knee, referring to a musical instrument with African origins, but the song takes its beat from the polka, which had just reached America from Europe. Glenn Weiser suggests the song was influenced by an existing work, Rose of Alabama (1846), with which it shares some similarities in lyrical theme and musical structure ------------------------------------------- Listen or Buy on Spotify: https://play.spotify.com/album/1p5MGK... iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/it/artist/ph...
