Gerry Rafferty - Half a Chance слова песни
Goin` down a dusty road, I turned my head �roundLooking for somewhere to go, a place to lay my head downCheck into a small hotel and there before my eyesStood a man with a trumpet in his handTrying to make the people understand, he stops and sighs and says"Half a chanceGive the singers half a chance and they`ll sing and dance through the nightLend an ear, pleaseAnd the band will play the things you`ll want to hearThere`s no doubtThat before tonight is over you`ll scream and shout �Hip hooray!`In the meantimeThere is only one more thing I`d like to say"Spoke about the well-known faces appearing in the showStar attraction of the evening would be Billy with his big banjoBut first of all, a sweet little lady who`d have us all screamin` for moreLily, the striptease queen with the biggest pair you`ve ever seen.Down and downWent her long black stockings and, as they hit the ground, the boys went madEveryone agreedThat it was the greatest time they`d ever hadOn and onNow the night was nearly over except for Billy and his big banjoBilly sang a song called �The Truckdriver Man`And we joined in for a chorus or two and then I went to bed."Half a chanceGive the singers half a chance and they`ll sing and dance through the nightLend an ear, pleaseAnd the band will play the things you`ll want to hearThere`s no doubtThat before tonight is over you`ll scream and shout �Hip hooray!`In the meantimeThere is only one more thing I`d like to say"Electric Guitar: Alan ParkerPiano: Tom ParkerBass: Gary TaylorDrums: Henry SpinettiLead Vocals: Gerry RaffertyBacking Vocals: Gerry Rafferty / Joe Egan
