Sammy the Shammy
Up and down the ladders he goes
making sure the windows are clean
he's got some stories to tell I bet
about all the things he has seen.
But he takes pride in his work
and he's always there on time
as long as he get's a nice cuppa
he'll get rid of all that dirt and grime.
Always friendly and chatty
the old ladies think he's a star
they secretly get all excited
as he takes his gear out of his car.
They offer him lots of cake
and endless cups of tea
he brightens up their day
with his banter and his squeegee.
He flirts with the housewifes
but it's only a bit of fun
because an irate husband
could shoot him with a gun.
Children follow him about
as he works down their street
and if they carry his bucket
they may even get a treat.
So that's Sammy the Shammy
he's the squeegee superman
who sets old ladies hearts a flutter
when he turns up in his van!
