[Instrumental Intro]
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 1]
Everybody's building 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
[Chorus]
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
[Verse 2]
I like to go just like the rest
I like my sugar sweet
But jumping queues and makin' haste
Just ain't my cup of meat
Everyone's beneath the trees
Feedin' pigeons on a limb
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
All the pigeons gonna run to him
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
Let me do what I wanna do
I can't decide 'em all
Just tell me where to put 'em
And I'll tell you who to call
Nobody can get no sleep
There's someone on everyone's toes
But when Quinn the Eskimo gets here
Everybody's gonna wanna doze
[Chorus]
Come all without, come all within
(Yes, sing a song, everybody)
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
(I wanna hear you sing, mmm)
Come all without, come all within
(Here he comes now)
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
(It's the Mighty Quinn)
[Chorus/Outro]
Come all without, come all within
(Yes, sing a song, everybody)
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn
(It's a-comin' along)
Come all without, come all within
(Yes, sing a song)
You'll not see nothing like the Mighty Quinn...
