Joe The Singing Janitor - Junior Brown

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
