Quinn the Eskimo (The Mighty Quinn)

Ev'rybody's building the big ships and the boats Some are building monuments Others are jotting down notes Ev'rybody's in despair Ev'ry girl and boy But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here Ev'rybody's jump for joy Come all without, come all within You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn I like to do just like the rest, I like my sugar sweet But guarding fumes and making haste It ain't my cup of meat Ev'rybody's just standing 'round 'neath 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 A lamb bleat and a goat do, I can recite 'em all Just tell me where it hurts And I'll tell you who to call Nobody can get any sleep There's someone on ev'ryone's toes But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here Ev'rybody'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
