Bob Dylan - Mighty Quinn (Quinn the Eskimo) Lyrics



Bob Dylan - Mighty Quinn (Quinn the Eskimo) Lyrics
Official




Everybody's building the big 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

Now, I likes to do just like the rest
I like my sugar sweet
But guarding fumes and making haste
It ain't my cup of meat
Everybody's out the trees, feeding pigeons on a limb
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
Them pigeons'll go to him

Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn

Now, lamp-gate, and gunney-dew, I can recite them all
Just tell me where it hurts
And I'll tell you who to call
Nobody can get any sleep, there's someone on everybody's toes
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here everybody's gonna 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

Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn
