Stanza :
--------
       RIFF 1                                  RIFF 1
       He came into town with his mandolin
       RIFF 1                                            RIFF 1
       Calling all the people and they came to him

Chorus :
--------
       RIFF 2                                           RIFF 1
       He said : "I wanna hear all that's pretty"
       RIFF 2                                           RIFF 1
       He said : "I wanna hear all that's nice"

And so on :

They laught at him with his mandolin
They left him there with his funny grin

The children of the town then came to him
Magically called with his mandolin

They smiled at him with his mandolin
Their eyes like his were sparkled in

He said : "I wanna hear all that's pretty"
He said : "I wanna hear all that's nice"
They said : "You wanna hear all that's pretty"
They said : "You wanna hear all that's nice"

RIFF 1 (ad lib)
La la la ;)
