Manfred Mann’s Earth Band - Mighty Quinn lyrics
[Manfred Mann’s Earth Band - Mighty Quinn lyrics]
Everybody's building ships and boats
Some are building monuments
Others are jotting down notes
Everybody's in despair, every girl and boy
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
Everybody's gonna jump for joy
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Let me do what I wanna do
I like my sugar sweet
But jumping queues and making haste it
Ain't my cup of meat
Everybody's beneath the trees feeding
Pigeons on a limb
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here all
The pigeons gonna run to him
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Let me do what I wanna do
I like my sugar sweet
But jumping queues and making haste
Ain't my cup of meat
Nobody can get no sleep
There's someone on everyone's toes
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
Everybody's gonna want to doze
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Some are building monuments
Others are jotting down notes
Everybody's in despair, every girl and boy
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
Everybody's gonna jump for joy
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Let me do what I wanna do
I like my sugar sweet
But jumping queues and making haste it
Ain't my cup of meat
Everybody's beneath the trees feeding
Pigeons on a limb
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here all
The pigeons gonna run to him
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Let me do what I wanna do
I like my sugar sweet
But jumping queues and making haste
Ain't my cup of meat
Nobody can get no sleep
There's someone on everyone's toes
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
Everybody's gonna want to doze
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
