In reply to the discussion: Mr. L's Lyric Challenge III [View all]mr_lebowski
(33,643 posts)160. More hints?
The 'hit' version was on the first (only?) solo album by youthful, handsome singer of a hugely successful British rock group.
The songwriter (who recorded it himself a bit later) was kinda a cheeseball British pop singer with a high voice who had some MASSIVE hits in the mid-late 70's, then everyone decided he was way uncool. Appeared on like the Muppets and stuff.
A few more lyrics ...
you find a nice soft corner
and ya set right down
take up your guitar and play
til policeman comes and says 'move along'
so ya
move along all day ...
