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 Lyrics submitted by Nick These lyrics are not available for printing
