A Man With A Drum

There's a man who plays a drum

Standing on the corner

Maybe he's a clown

All the children gather round

To watch the man play his drum.

He looks so serious

But you'd guess he's having fun...

Bang the drum, bang the drum bang the drum.

Wind blows down the alleyway

Creeps up behind him and it says

"But what are you doing here son?

Don't tell me you're just here to beat that drum."

"I'll take some fried fish and beer

Then probably I'll disappear

But think about me when I'm gone

And tell me why it is you beat that drum."

And when the moon lifted its head

It moved up close to him and said

"Oh by the way my boy - by the way

I think I'm going to believe you

No matter what you say."
