Lyrics
Nancy: I met him in a Greenwich village coffee nook (Greenwich?) He was selling folk songs and little dirty books The place was full of happy hop'd up hippies at the time All mornin' long he hadn't made a dime Both: He was a Greenwich village folk song salesman You should have heard the bag he was in He was a Greenwich village folk song salesman He'd jump up and sing one now and then Lee: [Post-Chorus] I've got songs about Detroit and Vietnam And new one about the economic opportunity program (What's that?) (I don't know, I didn't write this.) Nancy: He had a little banjo with an alligator strap He'd sing a song at the drop of your hat He had one song there that Johnson should have heard To the tune of the Great Speckled Bird Both: He was a Greenwich village folk song salesman His beard was a dark shade of green (Ugh) He was a Greenwich village folk song salesman And now and then he'd jump up and he'd scream Lee: [Post-Chorus] I've got songs about Detroit and Vietnam And new one about the economic opportunity program (I can't even pronounce that!) Nancy: Well I told him I had to soon be on my way Way back to Music City US of A He said if you'd see Lee and Nancy my friend Tell 'em I've got fifteen songs for them Both: He was a Greenwich village folk song salesman You should have heard the bag he was in (What a bag x3) He was a Greenwich village folk song salesman He'd jump up and sing one now and then (Oh yes!) He was a Greenwich village folk song salesman You should have heard the bag he was in (What a bag x3) He was a Greenwich village folk song salesman He'd jump up and sing one now and then
