One Man Band — текст песни (Leo Sayer)

Ev`rybody knows down Ladbroke 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

Take up your guitar and play

Then 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.

I`m a one man band
. . .

And 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 you look so sad
. . .

I`m a one man band
. . .

Oh
look at the rain falling.
Oh
look at the rain.
