Let me tell you 'bout the Manfreds |
|
The music that they're puttin' down |
|
They started to play |
|
On a rainy day |
|
& the people came from miles around |
|
CHORUS: |
|
They didn't come for the rhythm |
|
They didn't come for the beat |
|
The people of the town |
|
Came just to stand around |
|
& see the singer lookin' sweet |
|
Mike Hugg plays the drums, yeah |
|
Tom McGuiness plays the diamond bass |
|
But the one in the middle |
|
Sings "Hey diddle diddle" |
|
God, he's just a pretty face |
|
(chorus) |
|
They couldn't have! |
|
(instrumental) |
|
Manfred Mann plays the organ |
|
Mike Vickers plays guitar |
|
& there's a geezer called Paul |
|
Who's so thin & so tall |
|
& sure wants to be a star |
|
(chorus) |
|
(x6): See the singer lookin'... |
|
Sweet |
