Manfred Mann

Manfred Mann was a British beat, rhythm and blues and pop band (with a strong jazz foundation) of the 1960s, named after their South African keyboardist, Manfred Mann, who later led the successful 1970s group Manfred Mann's Earth Band. Manfred Mann were chart regulars in the 1960s, and the first south-of-England-based group to top the US Billboard Hot 100 during the British invasion. more »

Let me tell you 'bout the Manfreds 
The music that they're puttin' down 
They started to play 
On a rainy day 
& the people came from miles around 

CHORUS: 
They didn't come for the rhythm 
They didn't come for the beat 
The people of the town 
Came just to stand around 
& see the singer lookin' sweet 

Mike Hugg plays the drums, yeah 
Tom McGuiness plays the diamond bass 
But the one in the middle 
Sings "Hey diddle diddle" 
God, he's just a pretty face 

(chorus) 
They couldn't have! 

(instrumental) 

Manfred Mann plays the organ 
Mike Vickers plays guitar 
& there's a geezer called Paul 
Who's so thin & so tall 
& sure wants to be a star 

(chorus) 

(x6): See the singer lookin'... 
Sweet
