Lyrics The Mighty Quinn - Manfred Mann

The Mighty Quinn

Everybody’s building the big ships and boats
Some are building monuments and others they’re jotting down notes
Everybody’s in despair, every little girl and boy
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets there, 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
'cause I can do just like the rest and I like my sugar sweet
Guarding fumes and making haste just ain’t my cup of meat
Everybody’s feeding pigeons out on a limb
But when Quinn the Eskim gets there, 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
???
I can’t recite them all
Tell me where it hurts you, honey and I’ll tell you who to call
Everybody ain’t getting no sleep 'cause there’s someone on everyones toes
But Quinn the Eskimo gets there, everybody’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
