Lyrics
Not so long ago there was a man I knew quite well He didn't do much, well he didn't think so Working nearly every day and sleeping every night A little sighing A little laughing Four days out of five he'd hurry home the quickest way He didn't need much, well he didn't think so Then at home he'd say hello and kiss the wife and kids They were glad to see him He was glad to be him Fridays after work he'd wander home a different way He didn't think much, well he didn't think so Sitting by the riverside he'd feed the ducks and swans A little pleasure A little leisure Not so long ago some kids who should have been at home Were throwing pebbles, down by the river Seeing someone fast asleep they thought they'd have some fun A good old shake-up He didn't wake up
