Walk Quietly By

Walk quietly by, he won't bother you
He's a busy man, he's got things to do
All day long he's happy in his world
Picking up the leaves
Cleaning up his own back yard

Through summer heat and the winter snow
You'll find him picking up the papers that people throw
All day long he's happy in his world
Picking up the leaves
Cleaning up his own back yard

There's no rhyme nor reason
Walking the streets of this wide world
Can't find the answer to my restless troubled mind
Please help, I keep asking
Everybody's so busy, no they won't stop
I got to keep on moving to rest this troubled mind

He doesn't care, nor does he know
Of the outside world that comes and goes
All day long he's happy in his world
Picking up the leaves
Cleaning up his own back yard

So walk quietly by, he won't bother you
He's a busy man, he's got things to do
All day long he's happy in his world
Picking up the leaves
Cleaning up his own back yard
