Writers: leo sayer & david courtney

Well everybody knows down ladbrook 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
But then the law man comes says move along
So you move along all day

Well I’m a one man band
Nobody knows nor understands
Is there anybody out there wanna lend me a hand
With my one man band

For three days now I haven’t eaten at all
My my you must be getting so thin
And 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
Well I can play you any song you like
To cheer up that life you lead

Well I’m a one man band
Nobody knows nor understands
Is there anybody out there wanna lend me a hand
With my one man band

And oh oh oh look at the rain falling
Oh oh oh look at it rain
Oh look at it rain

Well nobody sees the minstrel boy as he sings his tale of woe
Nobody sees him coming
Nobody see him go
So hey there mister don’t you look so sad
Don’t look so ill at ease
Well I can play you any song you like
To cheer up that life you lead

Well I’m a one man band
Nobody knows nor understands
Is there anybody out there wanna lend me a hand
With my one man band

Well I’m a one man band
Nobody knows nor understands
Is there anybody out there wanna lend me a hand
With my one man band

Oh I’m a one man band
Just a one man band
Oh I’m a one man band

2.One Man Band (Jack Savoretti) sözleri

Jack Savoretti tarafından albümünde söylenen One Man Band adlı şarkının sözleri.

Gotta get my stuff together
I'm heading out
Gotta do the things that I've been speaking 'bout

Gotta show the world the difference between right and wrong
Yes
I gotta make myself a living writing songs

I'm just a lonely singer on a lonely road
This is the life that I chose

I give it more
So much more than what I've got
Eveything you think I am
I am not

'Cause I'm just a one man traveling band
Writing down poems on the back of my hand
I'm hoping you will understand me

I've come a long way
I've given up the cocaine
Looking for a chance to play a couple songs that I wrote along the way

I never thought that I would ever learn guitar
That I'd be the man on stage

No
Never thought that I would get to see the world
Love and miss the band everyday

But I headed out to California for margaritas by the pool
And the house of a good old friend of mine I knew way back in school

Just a box of wood
Six strings
This guitar
I've played in bedrooms and still play in bars

On city streets with pennies at my feet
And you know I'll play for money
I will play for free

'Cause I'm just a one man traveling band
Writing down poems on the back of my hand
I'm hoping you will understand me

I've come a long way
I've given up the cocaine
Looking for a chance to play a couple songs that I wrote along the way

I never thought that I would ever learn guitar
That I'd be the man on stage

No
Never thought that I would get to see the world
Love and miss the band everyday

But I headed out to California for margaritas by the pool
And the house of a good old friend of mine I knew way back in school
Yes
