Mighty Quinn (Quinn The Eskimo) Lyrics By Manfred Mann

    everybody’s building ships and boats
    some are building monuments others are jotting down notes
    everybody’s in despair every girl and boy
    but when quinn the eskimo gets here 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

    let me do what i wanna do i like my sugar sweet
    but jumping queues and making haste it ain’t my cup of meat
    everybody’s beneath the trees feeding pigeons on a limb
    but when quinn the eskimo gets here all the 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

    let me do what i wanna do i like my sugar sweet
    but jumping queues and making haste ain’t my cup of meat
    nobody can get no sleep there’s someone on everyone’s toes
    but when quinn the eskimo gets here everybody’s gonna want to 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
