Junior Brown - Joe the singing janitor lyrics

You heard about the singing brakeman; You might have seen a singing cowboy, too... I'm Joe the singing janitor I'm at a theater near you I'll also be appearing at the concert you'll be hearing... But I won't be singing with the band I'm Joe the singing janitor Cleanin' up for the folks; gettin' by the best I can I'm in your school room, your pool room, your office, and your home... And I'll always give you service with a smile And most folks don't think that a janitor needs A little kindness once in a while Well I really don't care if you think I'm a square From my hat down to my shoes I'm Joe the singing janitor... So go easy on a guy who's tryin' to make life easy on you! Well the school kids like to have a laugh on me With their spitballs and chewin' gum mess... Making fun of my cornball singing voice And the real square way I dress Well I'm gonna sing a song in the principal's office So they better respect an old man I'm Joe the singing janitor... Workin' hard for the kids; gettin' by the best I can! Well if a broomstick was a microphone... I could show you all a thing or two I ain't on the stage, just a dirty old floor... And I got a lotta work to do I can't carry a tune in a bucket... But I carry that bucket with pride I'm Joe the singing janitor... I'm the man behind the mop; I make everything sparkle and shine! I'm in your school room, your pool room, your office, and your home... And I'll always give you service with a smile And most folks don't think that a janitor needs A little kindness once in a while Well I really don't care if you think I'm a square From my hat down to my shoes I'm Joe the singing janitor... So go easy on a guy who's tryin' to make life easy on you
