Man In A Shed Lyrics

The song Man In A Shed is performed by Nick Drake in the album named Fruit Tree in the year 1991 .



Well, there was a man who lived in a shed
Spent most of his days out of his head
For his shed was rotten let in the rain
Said it was enough to drive any man insane

When it rained
He felt so bad
When it snowed he felt just simply sad

Well, there was a girl who lived nearby
Whenever he saw her he could only simply sigh
But she lived in a house so very big and grand
For him it seemed like some very distant land

So when he called her
His shed to mend
She said, "I'm sorry you'll just have to find a friend"

Well, this story is not so very new
But the man is me, yes and the girl is you
So leave your house come into my shed
Please stop my world from raining through my head

Please don't think
I'm not your sort
You'll find that sheds are nicer than you thought
