Kris Kristofferson - Quinn The Eskimo (The Mighty Quinn) lyrics

Ev'rybody's building the big ships and the boats Some are building monuments Others, jotting down notes Ev'rybody's in despair Ev'ry girl and boy But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here Ev'rybody's gonna 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 'neath the trees Feeding pigeons on a limb But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here All the pigeons gonna run to him Come all without, come all within You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn A cat's meow and a cow's moo, I can recite 'em all Just tell me where it hurts yuh, honey And I'll tell you who to call Nobody can get no sleep There's someone on ev'ryone's toes But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here Ev'rybody's gonna wanna doze Come all without, come all within You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn
