Gerry Rafferty Lyrics

"Please Sing A Song For Us" lyrics


Walk in, sit down, open up your caseTune up, and turn ‘round to show your face to the crowdSing a song in a genuine bluegrass voiceAbout your big Dixie Darling, the banjo that's always in tune.
Please sing a song for us, play your guitarThere isn't one of us care who you areBut if the sound is good, you won't go wrongPlease sing a song for us and we will sing along (so long).
Stand up, stretch out to take the handOf a girl called Rosie who thought your performance was coolTune in, turn on, stop dead in your tracksAt a voice softly singing about some fool on a hill.
Please sing a song for us, play your guitarThere isn't one of us care who you areAnd if the sound is good, you won't go wrongPlease sing a song for us and we will sing along (so long).

Vocals: Gerry Rafferty
