One Man Band - Live in Denver, CO, 1976
Well, everybody knows down Ladbroke 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, he says, "Move along"
So you move along all day (that's right)
Well, I'm a one-man band
And nobody knows nor understands
Is there anybody out there wanna lend me a hand
To my one-man band?
(Oh yeah) 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 wanna lend me a hand
To my one-man band?
Hey, sing along (come on, sing along)
And oh, oh, oh, look at the rain falling (look at it fall)
Oh, oh, oh look at it rain
Oh, look at it rain
(Sing along, look at it rain)
Oh, look at it rain (oh marvelous, oh yeah)
Nobody sees the minstrel boy
As he sings his tale of woe
Nobody sees him coming
Nobody sees 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, wanna lend me a hand
To my one-man band? (It's right there on the radio, come on)
Well, I'm a one-man band
And nobody knows nor understands
Is there anybody out there wanna lend me a hand
To my one-man band?
Oh, I'm a one-man band
Just a one-man band
I'm a one-man band
Just a one-man band
Well, I'm a one-man band
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, he says, "Move along"
So you move along all day (that's right)
Well, I'm a one-man band
And nobody knows nor understands
Is there anybody out there wanna lend me a hand
To my one-man band?

My, my, you must be getting so thin
And soon my cap won't be large enough

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

Just a one-man band
I'm a one-man band
Just a one-man band
Well, I'm a one-man band
