Salesman, well, you're going to go sell all of your goods today,
Salesman, going to walk along the street, see friends along the way,
Whoa, salesman, with your wooden cart that you push along while you walk,
Hey, salesman, got a little dog whose tail wags when you talk,
You always wear a smile, even though you got to walk ten miles,
Short lifespan, good-time-salesman.
Yep, yep, salesman, running on the street, whether it's hot or cold,
It's salesman, well, you work real hard till every pot is sold,
Salesman, as the years go by, people changing every day,
Hey, salesman, till the end of time, you'll be living in the same way,
You always wear a smile, you're loving fast and you live wild,
Short life span, but ain't life grand?
Copper kettles, different kinds of tin,
There goes salesman and he's sailing high again,
He's sailing so high, (High)
He's sailing so high, (High)
He's sailing so high, (High)
High, (High)
High, (High)
Oh, salesman, well, you're going to go sell all of your goods today,
Yep, salesman, going to walk along the street, see friends along the way,
Hey, salesman, with your wooden cart that you push along while you walk,
Hey, salesman with your secret goods that you push while you talk,
You always wear a smile even though you got to walk a hundred and ten miles,
Short life span, but the whole thing's grand.
Salesman,
Salesman,
Salesman,
Salesman.
