The Mighty Quinn (Quinn The Eskimo) lyrics by Manfred Mann
Mighty QuinnEv'rybody's building the big ships and the boats
Some are building monuments others 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.
I like to do just like rest I like my sugar sweet
But garding fumes and making haste
it ain't my cup of meat
Ev'rybody's 'neath the trees
Feeding pigeons on a limb
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
All the pigeons gonna run to him.
A cat's meow and a cow's moo I can recite 'em all
Just tell me where it hurts
and I 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.
