This song was somewhat inspired by Taj Mahal. Taj made special appearances on the Gentle Soul recordings, The Rescuer (later on this album), and again on Pamela’s 2nd solo album which is featured next on this site.
lyrics
Sing-a-Song Man
(Pamela Polland)
Listen everybody to the sing-a-song man
He's takin' all the children to a sing-along land
And he'll touch you with his voice - it's far reaching
Cuz he's a soul soulful man (talkin' 'bout the sing-a-song man)
Why don't you lookit everybody at the twinkle in his eye (lookit)
Come on and lookit everybody cuz the twinkle doesn't lie (so look at it)
He's gonna touch you with the truth - it's far reaching
And he's a soul soulful man (talkin' 'bout the sing-a-song man)
And here's what he's singin' now.....
Whoa - whoa - yes I am
Yes he's singin' now
Whoa - whoa - yes I am
Well, I'm a sing-a-song man
Someday I'm gonna get me an old funky band (I been searchin')
I'm gonna travel 'cross the country make it sing-along land (I'm gonna find it)
All of the way from the Pacific Ocean straight on across to the Atlantic sand
Just like the sing-a-song, I'd just like ta sing a song, man
And we'll be singin' now.....
Whoa - whoa - yes I am
Everybody's singin'...
Whoa - whoa - yes I am
a- yes I am, a-yes I am!
