Lyrics Lou Christie

Lou Christie

Mr Tenor Man

They talk about the bass man, he had success

Oh what they say about him, I couldn't care less

But I'm a tenor man and a-don't you forget

That I have got the sound that the kids love best

(Listen to the tenor man, listen to the tenor man

Listen to the tenor man, ah)

They all come around and we hit the town

They never start screamin' till they hear this sound

Now I don't care about a "boom boom boom"

They don't start to swoon till they hear me croon

They talk about tenors day and night

Don't care if the sound is wrong or right

All I have to do is open my mouth

Everybody wants to jump and shout

Now, Mr. Bass Man, before you go

Let me hear you "boom boom" just once more

Together now!
