Gordon Lightfoot I'd Do It Again
A one man band on a one night stand As a one man band should be The cried for more, he replied why sure And he played one just for free The sounds he laid down. the songs he played 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 The one man band philosophical man Didn't lie when he said to us I seen the high rollers come and go It's the holy rollers I trust 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 The one man band was a mighty good man Cause he played 'til the break of dawn He ups and downs about four more rounds And he stayed 'til the crowd went home It seemed to me like he never could be Like anything I'd ever seen before When he stepped from the stage with his ax in his hand And he run through the backstage door I'd do it again, I'd do it again I'd do it again A one man band on a one night stand As a one man band should be They cried for more, he replied why sure And he played one just for free
