Session Man

Ray Davies, released on Face to Face, © Davray/Carlin Music Corp. 1966

.

He never will forget at all

The day he played at the Albert Hall.

A million sessions ago it seems.

He is a session man,

A chord progression,

A top musician.

.

Rock 'n' roll or vocal star[?],

A philharmonic orchestra,

Everything comes the same to him.

He is a session man,

A chord progression,

A top musician.

.

He's not paid to think, just play,

A session man

A session man

A session man

Playing at a different studio every day.

.

He reads the dots and plays each line,

And always finishes on time.

No overtime nor favors done.

He is a session man,

A chord progression,

A top musician.

.

He's not paid to think, just play,

A session man

A session man

A session man

.
