Gerry Rafferty - Half a Chance lyrics
Goin' down a dusty road, I turned my head ‘round Looking for somewhere to go, a place to lay my head down Check into a small hotel and there before my eyes Stood a man with a trumpet in his hand Trying to make the people understand, he stops and sighs and says "Half a chance Give the singers half a chance and they'll sing and dance through the night Lend an ear, please And the band will play the things you'll want to hear There's no doubt That before tonight is over you'll scream and shout ‘Hip hooray!' In the meantime There is only one more thing I'd like to say" Spoke about the well-known faces appearing in the show Star attraction of the evening would be Billy with his big banjo But first of all, a sweet little lady who'd have us all screamin' for more Lily, the striptease queen with the biggest pair you've ever seen. Down and down Went her long black stockings and, as they hit the ground, the boys went mad Everyone agreed That it was the greatest time they'd ever had On and on Now the night was nearly over except for Billy and his big banjo Billy sang a song called ‘The Truckdriver Man' And we joined in for a chorus or two and then I went to bed. "Half a chance Give the singers half a chance and they'll sing and dance through the night Lend an ear, please And the band will play the things you'll want to hear There's no doubt That before tonight is over you'll scream and shout ‘Hip hooray!' In the meantime There is only one more thing I'd like to say" Electric Guitar: Alan Parker Piano: Tom Parker Bass: Gary Taylor Drums: Henry Spinetti Lead Vocals: Gerry Rafferty Backing Vocals: Gerry Rafferty / Joe Egan |
