Session Man Lyrics
[Verse 1]
He never will forget at all
The day he played at the Albert Hall
A million sessions ago it seems
He is a session man
A chord progression
A top musician
[Verse 2]
Rock 'n' roll or vocal star
A philharmonic orchestra
Everything comes the same to him
He is a session man
A chord progression
A top musician
[Chorus]
He's not paid to think, just play
A session man
A session man
A session man
Playing at a different studio every day
[Verse 3]
He reads the dots and plays each line
And always finishes on time
No overtime nor favours done
He is a session man
A chord progression
A top musician
[Chorus]
He's not paid to think, just play
A session man
A session man
A session man
A session man
A session man
