Now here's a little story
To [A] tell it [D] is a must
[G]
About an [Em] unsung hero
[A] That moves [D] away a dust
Some people make a fortune
[A] Others [D] earn a mint
[A] My old man [D] don't earn much
[E] In [D#] fact, he's flippin' [D]
skint
[C#] Oh, [G] my old man's a dustman
He wears a [D] dustman's hat
He wears gold blimey trousers
And he lives in the council [G] flat
He looks a proper nana
In his great big [C] gob-nail boots
[D] He's got such a job to pull them [G] up
That he calls them daisy roots
Some folks give tips at Christmas
And some of them [D] forget
So when he picked their bins up
He spilled some on the step
[G] Now one old man got nasty
And to the council wrote
[D] Next time my [G] old man went round there
He punched him up the throat
Oh, my old man's a dustman
He wears a dustman's hat
He wears gold blimey trousers
And he lives in the council flat
I say, I say, Les
I found a police dog in my dustbin
Well, how do you know he's a police dog?
He had a policeman with him
Though my old man's a dustman
He's got an heart [D] of gold
He got married recently
Though he's 86 [G] years old
We said, here, hang on, Dad
You're getting [Em] past your prime
[D] He said, well, when you get my age
It helps to pass the time
Oh, my [G] old man's a dustman
He wears a dustman's hat
He wears gold blimey trousers
And he lives in the council flat
I say, I say, I say
My dustbin's full of lilies
Well, throw them away then
I can't, lilies wearing them
Now one day whilst in a hurry
He missed [D] a lady's bin
He hadn't gone but a few yards
When she chased [G] after him
What game do you think you're playing?
She cried right [Em] from the heart
You've missed [B] me, am I too late?
Now jump up on the cart
Oh, [G] my old man's a dustman
He wears a [D] dustman's hat
He wears gold blimey trousers
And he lives [G] in the council flat
I say, I say, I say
That's you again
My dustbin's absolutely full with toadstool
How do you know it's full?
Because there's not much room inside
He found a tiger's head one day
Nailed to [D] a piece of wood
The tiger looked quite miserable
But I [G] suppose he should
Just then from out a window
A [Em] voice began to wail
It [D] said, Oi, where's me tiger's head?
Four [G] foot from his tail
Oh, my old man's a dustman
He wears a [D] dustman's hat
He wears gold blimey trousers
And he lives in [G] the council flat
Next time you see a dustman
Looking [Em] all pale and sad
Don't kick him in the dustbin
It might be my old man
[G] [N]
