Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Blinded By The Light Lyrics
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Indians in the summer
With a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps
As the adolescent pumps
His way into his hat
With a boulder on my shoulder
Feeling kinda older
I tripped a merry-go-round
With this very unpleasing
Sneezing and wheezing
The calliope crashed to the ground
But she was blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
Some silicone sister
With her manager mister
Told me I got what it takes
She said, I'll turn you on sonny to something strong
Play the song with the funky break
And go-kart Mozart
Was checking out the weather chart
To see if it was safe outside
And little Early Pearly
Came by in his curly-wurly
And asked me if I needed a ride
Asked me if I needed a ride
'Cause she was blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
She got down but she never got tight
She's gonna make it to the night
She's gonna make it through the night
But mama, that's where the fun is
But mama, that's where the fun is
[Solo]
Mama always told me not to look into the eyes of the sun
But mama, that's where the fun is
Some brimstone baritone
Anticyclone rolling stone
Preacher from the east
Says, "Dethrone the Dictaphone
Hit it in its funny bone
That's where they expect it least."
And some new mown chaperone
Was standing in the corner
Watching the young girls dance
And some fresh-sown moonstone
Was messing with his frozen zone
Reminding him of romance
The calliope crashed to the ground
But she was blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
(Madman drummers bummers and Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way into his hat)
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
(With a boulder on my shoulder feelin' kinda older I tripped the merry-go-round
With this very unpleasing sneezing and wheezing the calliope crashed to the ground)
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
(And now Scott with a slingshot finally found a tender spot and throws his lover in the sand
And some bloodshot forget-me-not whispers daddy's within earshot save the buckshot turn up the band.)
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
Blinded by the light
Revved up like a deuce
Another runner in the night
(Some silicone sister with her manager mister told me I got what it takes
She said I'll turn you on sonny to something strong)
She got down but she never got tired
She's gonna make it through the night

Manfred Mann's Earth Band Blinded By The Light Comments
Anyone know the beginning instrument I’ve been dying to know?
I wish I had some weed.
Me too!. A jam for all times!
The music from the '70s is one of a kind. These songs are classic, never boring, but impressive. May God bless them.
Blinded by a kite
Withe their fake American accents,m wankers!
Just gonna get a headstart... Who's listening in 2021??
Bruce made it better
They made a version of Springsteen tittle ? Oh, My
Yeah, I'm listening in 2020. A pro muso all my working life, I am REALLY impressed at how good these guys are. This song has a LOT going on; despite that, and that it's live, their tuning, singer's intonation and even their overall timing is fantastic. They do surge in spots but they never lose the handle on it. Hand shakes and high-fives from one old pro to a whole bunch of real pros. Top notch.
Blow brought me here
Timeless killer tune. True musicians and musicianship. Fuck this new digitally enhanced crap. It sucks donkey dick.
2020 ! Man I loved catching the Midnight Special every Saturday night , at midnight ! Great tune from 1976
Im racist
How many of you've tripped the merry-go-round?
Is this the same guy who sang "The Mighty Quinn?"
Like if you’re here for the weeknd
Once I was blind but now I see
When music was fun and MTV played music 24/7
I love the guitar riffs ...
awesome track set in time never grows old
This song, which I loved, but also it “freaked” me out. It was like so overwhelming at six-seven. I think some people are born with the propensity to have anxiety...just sayin. Does he really say anus?!
Who is listening? omg ... Musik für die Ewigkeit...
They are playing this in the key of F instead of E. Why? It's so much harder
Gran cancion
Absolute gold !! Still. Incredible
Those were the days...wonderful to hear and see such old songs again ---- Das waren noch Zeiten...herrlich so alte Songs wieder zu hören und zu sehen
January 19, 2020, 16 hours, 31 minutes, 14 seconds.
Who was the guitarist in the vid I love the solo not just that it's a good solo just the technical in getting those screams sounds and the cosmic sounds just amazing back then ...
Just want the drugs they had to make this video would probably last a year in moderation
Estupenda canción de lod años 70 de mafre man, hasta hoy la he encontrado.
Best song ever
A great live
Still in love and love to be blinded this kind! Repeat! Repeat! Repeat!
Very very cool!!!!
Bruce Springsteen.. good with lyrics ! But this version is epic! Heard it in my first Volvo Amazon -65 when i got mylicens 1979.. And I still Do. Thanks!
Fuck yeah !!! 2020
Another song written by The Boss
Back when you had to be a good musician to play music
Chris Thompson. What a singer!
Awesome!
They say when you lose one sense your others senses become stronger to make up for the loss. I might be blinded by the Light but I can hear this oh so very well now and it is just simply poetry in motion.
My buddy killed him self playing this song fuck ..... Rip bro
Earth, wind & fire sound?
Great song and performance
Perfect
Flying V and Chinese chop sticks wot more you want
Fukin real musicians none of this shite being cursed out today
Leftist Snowflakes thumbs down everything from the "evil" boomers.
Pfsif ok boomer
Perfect, litstening every now and then, and also in 2020 :)
This song will never go out of style! Still relevant today in 2020 as it was in the 70’s.
This song will always put me in a great mood
~This is a garage mechanics maniacal maintenance song during the transition form spark plugs to fuel injectors~``
I remember seeing this episode of The Midnight Special and being totally *thrilled* that Manfred Mann was on the "bill" that night because I *loved* this song...and IMO it says a lot about this man's talent that he was able to drop such a kick-ass cover, for a song written by a genius named Springsteen...
Perfection whose listening in January 2020
Holy shit - so good
Radical singers that look rad too wow
How I feel walking back to my patrol car on a night time traffic stop
2020 and I’M STILL BLINDED BY THIS SONG!!!!
This is Bruce Springsteen's original song !!
OMG 😱how my 27 yr.old daughter knows these songs mind u I was a teen 👩🏻she says but the game “ San Andreas” u go baby girl of mine👍🏼enjoying ur Mommie’s muzik

Bob Dylan wrote this song.
I am, and still get the chills.....
robin gibb sounds damn good without the bee gees. lol
This song would be perfect for guardians of the galaxy please use it
Damn! He's gotta be playing a real korina v unless it's an ibanez lawsuit copy!
Wrapped up like a *douche*
Does anyone else know that Bruce Springsteen wrote this fantastic little ditty? Check out 'Greetings from Asbury Park'. In the winter of '76 - '77 you couldn't turn a radio on that wasn't playing this song.... Or the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald (lol)
this song is still awesome to this day !!!!!
live or on the record still a great song
Awesome!
Christmas day 2019!
So tight! The whole band

Greatness oh yea 2019 and forever
Manfred Mann -- Whoo!
Just stumbled across this... could be circa 1978 but, no, it's 2019. And it's still brilliant. Great band, great dynamic sound
Rare Earth, MILLIE JACKSON, ELO, Joe Cocker, Etta James, Janis Joplin, Dave Matthews, Harry Nilsson, Jim Croce, Leonard Cohen, John Martyn, and now MANFRED MAN. It's been a long night but loads more to go !
Timeless...loved it when I was 7....love it even more at 50!!!💯
They don't make music like this anymore.
4,100 X-factor failures disliked this
Rocky marble is.
The 4.1k are rejects! Talent!!

Wrapped up like a douche
I love the guitar trilling in this song, a classic one of those great songs of the 70's
Could someone tell when the song blinded by the light first came out
@Marty Clark
Bruce Springsteen's version - 1973
Manfred Mann's Earth Band version - 1976.
The keyboard player was busy all thrue this song. He put in work!
All 4,000 fans of Katy Perry downvoted this. #RealMusic
