Gordon Lightfoot - I'd Do It Again |
I'd Do It Again
Gordon Lightfoot A one man band on a one night stand The cried for more, he replied why sure As a one man band should be The sounds he laid down. the songs he played And he played one just for free Made the ladies all come to call He was born in the back of a seminole bus On the road to Niagra Falls I'd do it again I'd do it again, I'd do it again Didn't lie when he said to us It's the holy rollers I trust The one man band philosophical man I seen the high rollers come and go The man said then he was sixteen when He retired from the county school A wee bit thin with a will to begin He was known to be know man's fool I'd do it again, I'd do it again I'd do it again Cause he played 'til the break of dawn The one man band was a mighty good man He ups and downs about four more rounds It seemed to me like he never could be And he stayed 'til the crowd went home When he stepped from the stage with his ax in his hand Like anything I'd ever seen before I'd do it again, I'd do it again And he run through the backstage door A one man band on a one night stand I'd do it again As a one man band should be They cried for more, he replied why sure And he played one just for free |
