One Man Band lyrics by Roger Daltrey
Everybody knows downLadbrook Grove
You have to leap
across the street
You can lose your life
under a taxi cab
You gotta have eyes
in your feet
You find a nice soft corner
and you sit right down
Picked up your guitar
and play
The the police come
and say "Move along"
so you move along all day
I'm a one man band
nobody cares or
understands
Is there anybody out there
who could lend a hand
to my one man band
For three days now
I haven't eaten at all
my my, I must be
getting so thin
Soon my cap won't be
large enough to drop
a half a crown in
So hey there, Mister
don't you look so sad
don't look so ill at ease
I can play you any song
you choose to cheer up
the life you lead
Oh, I'm a one man band
nobody sees or understands
Is there anybody out there
who could lend a hand
to my one man band
And oh oh oh
look at the rain falling
oh oh oh
look at the rain
Nobody hears the
minstrel boy as he
sings his tale of woe
Nobody sees him disappear
and nobody sees him go
So hey there, Mister
don't look so sad
don't feel so ill at ease
I can play you any song
you choose to cheer up
the life you lead
Oh, I'm a one man band
nobody sees or understands
Is there anybody out there
who could lend me a hand
to my one man band
Oh, I'm a one man band
nobody cares or understands
Is there anybody here
who could lend a hand
to my one man band
I'm a one man band
I'm a one man band
Oh, one man band
Oh, I'm a one man band
I'm a one man band
I'm a one man band
Oh, one man band
Oh, I'm a one man band
I'm a one man band
