(Nancy) I met him in a Greenwich Village coffee nook
(Lee) Greenwich'
(Nancy) He was selling folk songs and little dirty books
The place was full of happy hopped-up hippies at the time
All the morning long he hadn't made a dime

(Both) He was a Greenwich Village folk song salesman
You should have heard the bag he was in
He was a Greenwich Village folk song salesman
He'd jump up and sing one now and then

(Lee) I got songs about Detroit and Vietnam
And a new one about the economic opportunity program
(Nancy) What's that'
(Lee) I don�t know, I didn�t write it

(Nancy) He had a little banjo with an alligator strap
(Lee) hhhaaaaa
(Nancy) (giggle) He sang a song at the drop of your hat
He had one song there that Johnson should have heard
To the tune of a great speckled bird

(Both) He was a Greenwich Village folk song salesman
His spirit was a dark shade of green
(Nancy) ugghh
(Both) He was a Greenwich Village folk song salesman
And now and then he would jumped up and he�d scream

(Lee) I got songs Detroit and Vietnam
And a new one about the economic opportunity program
(Nancy) I can�t even pronounce that

Well I told him that I had to soon me on my way
Way back to music city US of A
He said if you see Lee and Nancy my friend
Tell 'em I've got fifteen songs for them

(Both) He was a Greenwich Village folk song salesman
You should have heard the bag he was in
(Nancy) What a bag, what a bag, what a bag
(Both) He was a Greenwich Village folk song salesman
He'd jump up and sing one now and then
(Nancy) Ohhh yeah.
(Both) He was a Greenwich Village folk song salesman
