Lyrics for Build Another Band
I ain't seen your face for a long long while Hope you're living like in good style You have your troubles that I do not envy But I got my own trouble file Get on the stand now Play the music Build another band Our past times have been good Laughing and joking night and noon and day No reason it should not always be that way I saw a friend today who said he'd seen you Looking so low, down in the blue He said you needed comfort but he did not know Just what to say to you Get on the stand now Play the music Build another band Our past times have been good Laughing and joking night and noon and day No reason it should not always be that way Now you're a big boy now You don't need a smacker to straighten out your head There's many who love you and want to see you Playing paint the town bright red Get on the stand now Play the music Build another band Our past times have been good Laughing and joking night and noon and day No reason it should not always be that way
