Hurdy Gurdy Man Lyrics - Donovan Leitch

Thrown like a star in my vast sleep 

I open my eyes to take a peep 

To find that I was by the sea 

Gazing with tranquility 

'Twas then when the hurdy gurdy man 

Came singing songs of love 

Then when the hurdy gurdy man 

Came singing songs of love 

Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang 

Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang 

Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang 

Histories of ages past 

Unenlightened shadows cast 

Down through all eternity 

The crying of humanity 

'Tis then when the hurdy gurdy man 

Comes singing songs of love 

Then when the hurdy gurdy man 

Comes singing songs of love 

Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang 

Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy 

Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang 

Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang 

Here comes the roly poly man and he's singing songs of love 

Roly poly, roly poly, roly poly, poly he sang 

Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang 

Hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, hurdy gurdy, gurdy he sang
