Mighty Quinn (#1) Songtext
von Manfred Mann’s Earth Band

Everybody′s building
Ships and boats
Some are building monuments
And others are jottin' down notes
Everybody′s in despair
Every girl and boy
When Quinn the Eskimo gets here
Everybody's gonna jump for joy

Come on without
Come on within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come on without
Come on within
You′ll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn


Let me do what I wanna do
Like my sugar sweet
But jumping queues and making haste
Ain′t my cup of meat
Everybody is beneath the trees
Feeding pigeons on a limb
When Quinn the Eskimo gets here
All the pigeons gonna run to him

Come on without
Come on within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come on without
Come on within
You′ll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn

Let me do what I wanna do
Like my sugar sweet
But jumping queues and making haste
Ain't my cup of meat
Nobody can get no sleep
Someone on everyones toes
When Quinn the Eskimo gets here
Everybody′s gonna wanna doze


Come on without
Come on within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come on without
Come on within
You′ll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn

Come on without
Come on within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
Come on without
Come on within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn

Come on without
Come on within
