Manfred Mann - Mighty Quinn
MANFRED MANN - MIGHTY QUINN
(B. Dylan)
Fontana 267 798 TF

Ev'rybody's building the big ships and the boats
Some are building monuments other jotting down notes
Ev'rybody's in despair
Ev'ry girl and boy
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here

Ev'rybody'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

I like to do just like the rest I like my sugar sweet
But guarding fumes and making hast it ain't my cup of meat
Ev'rybody's 'neath the trees teeding 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

Cats meow and a cow moo I can recite 'em all
Just tell me where it hurts and I'll tell you who to call
Nobody can get no sleep there's someone on ev'ryones toes
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
Ev'rybody's gonna wanna 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
