The minstrel of the dawn is here[00:00:00]
To make you laugh and bend your ear[00:00:03]
Up the steps you'll hear him climb[00:00:08]
All full of thoughts all full of rhymes[00:00:11]
Listen to the pictures flow[00:00:16]
Across the room into your mind they go[00:00:19]
Listen to the strings[00:00:25]
They jangle and dangle[00:00:30]
While the old guitar rings[00:00:33]
The minstrel of the dawn is he[00:00:38]
Not too wise but oh so free[00:00:42]
He'll talk of life out on the street[00:00:46]
He'll play it sad and say it sweet[00:00:49]
Look into his shining face[00:00:54]
Of lonelines you'll always find a trace[00:00:56]
Just like me and you[00:01:03]
He's tryin' to get into things[00:01:08]
More happy than blue[00:01:11]
A minstrel of the changin' tide[00:01:26]
He'll ask for nothing but his pride[00:01:28]
Just sit him down upon that chair[00:01:32]
Go fetch some wine and set it there[00:01:35]
Listen to the pictures flow[00:01:39]
Across the room into your where they go[00:01:41]
Listen to the strings[00:01:46]
They jangle and dangle[00:01:49]
While the old guitar rings[00:01:52]
A minstrel of the dawn is near[00:01:56]
Just like a step 'n fetchit here[00:01:58]
He's like an old time troubador[00:02:02]
Just wanting life and nothing more[00:02:03]
Look into his shining eyes[00:02:08]
And if you see a ghost don't be surprised[00:02:10]
Like me and you[00:02:16]
He's tryin' to get into things[00:02:19]
More happy than blue[00:02:21]
The minstrel boy will understand[00:02:25]
He holds a promise in his hand[00:02:28]
He talks of better days ahead[00:02:32]
And by his words your fortune's read[00:02:34]
Listen to the pictures flow[00:02:38]
Across the room into your mind they go[00:02:40]
Listen to the strings[00:02:45]
They jangle and dangle[00:02:48]
While the old guitar rings[00:02:51]
The minstrel of the dawn is gone[00:02:55]
I hope he'll call before too long[00:02:57]
And if you meet him you must be[00:03:01]
The victim of his minstrelsy[00:03:03]
He'll sing for you a song[00:03:07]
The minstrel of the dawn[00:03:11]
