“And I’ll sail her up the west coast
Through villages and towns
I’ll be on my holidays
They’ll be doing their rounds
They’ll ask me how I got her I’ll say “I saved my money”
They’ll say isn’t she pretty that ship called dignity”

Blinded by the Light is a decent tune
It is. Brucie was in a hiatus with his management at the time and couldn’t release any records, just as he was about to break into global superstardom. Manfred Mann saw their opportunity and released a Brucie tune and reaped the reward.
