Blinded By The Light Lyrics By Manfred Mann S Earth Band

    blinded by the light
    revved up like a deuce another runner in the night
    blinded by the light
    revved up like a deuce another runner in the night
    blinded by the light
    revved up like a deuce another runner in the night

    madman drummers bummers
    indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat
    in the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps
    his way into his hat
    with a boulder on my shoulder feelin’ kinda older
    i tripped the merrygoround
    with this very unpleasin’ sneezin’ and wheezin’
    the calliope crashed to the ground
    the calliope crashed to the ground

    but she was blinded by the light
    revved up like a deuce another runner in the night
    blinded by the light
    revved up like a deuce another runner in the night
    blinded by the light
    revved up like a deuce another runner in the night
    blinded by the light
    revved up like a deuce another runner in the night

    some silicone sister with a manager mister
    told me i got what it takes
    she said i’ll turn you on sonny to something strong
    play the song with the funky break
    and gocart mozart was checkin’ out the weather chart
    to see if it was safe outside
    and little earlypearly came by in his curlywurly
    and asked me if i needed a ride
    asked me if i needed a ride

    but she was blinded by the light
    revved up like a deuce another runner in the night
    blinded by the light

    breakdown
    she got down but she never got tired
    she’s gonna make it through the night
    she’s gonna make it through the night

    but mama that’s where the fun is
    but mama that’s where the fun is
    mama always told me not to look into the eyes of the sun
    but mama that’s where the fun is

    some brimstone baritone anticyclone rolling stone
    preacher from the east
    says dethrone the dictaphone hit it in it’s funny bone
    that’s where they expect it least
    and some newmown chaperone was standin’ in the corner
    watching the young girls dance
    and some freshsown moonstone was messin’ with his frozen zone
    reminding him of romance
    the calliope crashed to the ground

    but she was blinded by the light
    revved up like a deuce another runner in the night
    blinded by the light
    revved up like a deuce another runner in the night

    counter
    blinded by the light
    madman drummers bummers indians in the summer
    revved up like a deuce another runner in the night
    with a teenage diplomat
    blinded by the light
    in the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps
    revved up like a deuce another runner in the night
    his way into his hat
    blinded by the light
    with a boulder on my shoulder feelin’ kinda older
    revved up like a deuce another runner in the night
    i tripped the merrygoround
    blinded by the light
    with this very unpleasin’ sneezin’ and wheezin
    revved up like a deuce another runner in the night
    the calliope crashed to the ground
    blinded by the light
    now scott with a slingshot finally found a tender spot
    revved up like a deuce another runner in the night
    and throws his lover in the sand
    blinded by the light
    and some bloodshot forgetmenot said daddy’s within earshot
    revved up like a deuce another runner in the night
    save the buckshot turn up the band
    blinded by the light
    some silicone sister with a manager mister
    revved up like a deuce another runner in the night
    told me i got what it takes
    blinded by the light
    she said i’ll turn you on sonny to something strong

    she got down but she never got tired
    she’s gonna make it through the night
