Raconteur troubadour lyrics

Artist  : Gentle giant 
Song : Raconteur troubadour
 
Gather round the village square 
Come good people both wretched  
and fair. 
See the troubadour play on the drum 
Hear my songs on the lute that I strum. 
I will make you laugh, 
Revel, Merry-dance. 
Throw your pennies, then you`ll hear  
more of 
the story-telling half. 
There`s no other chance, 
Always move on 
Raconteur, troubadour. 
Take the face that you see for the man, 
Clown and minstrel, I am what I am. 
All my family, not of my kin. 
Home, wherever, the place that I`m in. 
Humors give me wage, 
Favors for my art. 
Rising, falling 
Everyone struggle on. 
All the world`s a stage 
All can play their part. 
I have chosen 
Raconteur, troubadour. 
Dusk is drawing my story is spun, 
Dawn is falling my day`s work is done. 
Morning, rested I set on my way. 
Find new faces to offer my play. 
I will make you laugh, 
Revel, Merry-dance. 
Throw your pennies, then you`ll hear 
more of 
The story-telling half. 
There`s no other chance. 
Always move on 
Raconteur-Troubadour.
