Song Lyrics

Well everybody knows down Ladbrook grove
You have to leap across the street
You can lose your life under a taxi cab
You gotta have eyes in your feet

You find a nice soft corner and you sit right down
Take up your guitar and play
But then the law man comes says move along
So you move along all day

Well I'm a one man band
Nobody knows nor understands
Is there anybody out there want to lend me a hand
With my one man band

For three days now I haven't eaten at all
My my you must be getting so thin
And soon my cap won't be large enough
To drop a half a crown in

So hey there mister don't you look so sad
Don't look so ill at ease
Well I can play you any song you like
To cheer up that life you lead

Well I'm a one man band
Nobody knows nor understands
Is there anybody out there want to lend me a hand
With my one man band

And oh oh oh look at the rain falling
Oh oh oh look at it rain
Oh look at it rain

Well nobody sees the minstrel boy as he sings his tale of woe
Nobody sees him coming
Nobody see him go
So hey there mister don't you look so sad
Don't look so ill at ease
Well I can play you any song you like
To cheer up that life you lead

Well I'm a one man band
Nobody knows nor understands
Is there anybody out there want to lend me a hand
With my one man band

Well I'm a one man band
Nobody knows nor understands
Is there anybody out there want to lend me a hand
With my one man band

Oh I'm a one man band
Just a one man band
Oh I'm a one man band
