Mighty Quinn - The Manfred Mann's Earth Band/The Hollies/Julie London/Brewer and Shipley

      

Mighty Quinn

Everybody's building ships and boats

Some are building monuments

Others 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

Everyone'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
