BOB DYLAN - Quinn The Eskimo lyrics

rate me

Ev'rybody's building the big ships and the boats,<br>Some are building monuments,<br>Others, jotting down notes,<br>Ev'rybody's in despair,<br>Ev'ry girl and boy<br>But when quinn the eskimo gets here,<br>Ev'rybody's gonna jump for joy.<br>Come all without, come all within,<br>You'll not see nothing like the mighty quinn.<br><br>I like to do just like the rest, I like my sugar sweet,<br>But guarding fumes and making haste,<br>It ain't my cup of meat.<br>Ev'rybody's 'neath the trees,<br>Feeding pigeons on a limb<br>But when quinn the eskimo gets here,<br>All the pigeons gonna run to him.<br>Come all without, come all within,<br>You'll not see nothing like the mighty quinn.<br><br>A cat's meow and a cow's moo, I can recite 'em all,<br>Just tell me where it hurts yuh, honey,<br>And I'll tell you who to call.<br>Nobody can get no sleep,<br>There's someone on ev'ryone's toes<br>But when quinn the eskimo gets here,<br>Ev'rybody's gonna wanna doze.<br>Come all without, come all within,<br>You'll not see nothing like the mighty quinn.
