Frog - Manfred Mann's Earth Band

A little frog jumped up onto the end of the boat, and the frog said to the old

man

«Old man, if you kiss me, I will turn into a beautiful young princess and you

can do whatever you want with me.»

And the old man smiled at the frog and kept on rowing his old boat across the

ancient lake

And the frog said again, «Old man, if you kiss me I will turn into a beautiful

young princess

And you can do whatever you want with me and I’ll do whatever you want.»

And the old man smiled and looked at the frog and carried on rowing his old

boat across the ancient lake

And there was a long silence while the guitar played

The frog said to the old man, «Old man, why won’t you kiss me?»

The old man looked at the frog and stopped rowing his old boat across the

ancient lake

Put his hands in the air and shrugged his shoulders and said: «At my age I’d

rather have a talking frog.»
