Artist: The Yardbirds
Song: an original man
A man I knew
Died too young
And in the end
His song unsung
He touched my life
He touched my soul
Given time he'd reach his goal
An original man that I knew
An original man right through
A sadness hidden
Behind his gaze
Before his time
In many ways
People copy,
Take and steal
But my friend he was for real
An original man that I knew
An original man right through
Time gives
And takes away
Everybody has their day
Even now
I see your face
You never left without a trace
An original man that I knew
An original man right through
