Tinker Tailor Soldier Sailor Lyrics

by The Yardbirds

(Jim McCarty / Jimmy Page)

Tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor,

Rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief,

Doctor, baker, fine shoe-maker,

Wise man, madman, taxman, please,

How can I know just what to be?

Please stop and give advice to me.

Tell me,

Tell me,

How many people do I help,

Just by sitting on the shelf,

Tell me,

Tell me,

I don't want a trade at all,

[It's for to?] living off the road.

Ooooh,



Tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor,

Rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief,

Doctor, baker, fine shoe-maker,

Wise man, madman, taxman, please.

Who's gonna tell me what to do?

Then they will say that I am true.

Maybe,

Maybe,

Perhaps I'll come to a great success,

Or possible a dreadful mess.

Maybe,

Maybe,

[Having buys its?] fortune, fame,

Living's just a little game.

Woooo-aaah,



Tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor,

Rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief,

Doctor, baker, fine shoe-maker,

Wise man, madman, taxman, please.

How can I know just what to be,

Please stop and give advice to me,

Tell me,

Tell me,

How many people do I help,

Just by sitting on a shelf,

Tell me,

Tell me,

I don't want a trade at all,

[It's for to?] living off the road,

Ooooh,



Tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor,

Rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief,

Doctor, baker, fine shoe-maker,

Wise man, madman, taxman, please.



Tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor,

... to fade
