Verse 1

As a boy I had a gig with a travelin' show

Way back in '63

We did a little pickin' for the soldier boys

Of General Bobby Lee

Bridge 1

But when we got to Pennsylvania,

I knew there'd be a change

We caught up with some boys from Georgia

And I heard one of them say

Chorus

Don't tell the band

The devil's on his way

Don't tell the band

 Just let the music play

Verse 2

Later on I had a job pouring gin and rum

On the grand queen of the sea

We set out on our first transatlantic voyage

Headed for New York City

Bridge 2

But when I felt that lady shudder

I knew there'd be a change

I saw the captain grab the first mate

And I thought I heard him say

(Chorus)

Just let the music play

Solo over bridge and chorus once each

Verse 3

In the Restaurant at the End of the Universe

In the year 3010

I was listenin' to the Good Old Interstellar Boys

Playin' "Let It Be" again

Bridge 3

But when I heard the trumpet sounding

I knew there'd be a change

A prophet wearin' robes appeared before us

And he looked at me and said

(Chorus x2)

Just let the music play

Just let the music play

End on Em
