Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by bernie taupin<br>Available on the soundtrack friends<br><br>I work for the foundry for a penny and a half a day<br>Like a blind street musician I never see those who pay<br>It's dirty work in birmingham<br>Better deal for a sheffield man<br>If he can rivet then his kids can buy<br>Candy from the candy man<br><br>And the van that comes around weekends<br>Selling fancy city things<br>Sold by the man with the trilby hat<br>And the whiskers spread like wings<br>You can hear him sing<br>Oh you can hear him sing<br>Can I put you on, people can I put you on<br>Tell you that I love you people<br>Sing a salesman's song and put you on<br><br>And a second cousin works in the pits in newcastle on tyne<br>And he don't care if it rains outside, there's coal dust on his mind<br>It's dirty work in manchester<br>But the crew gets paid it's gelt<br>Bang on the bell on friday<br>You buys a little something for yourself<br><br>And the van that comes around weekends<br>Selling fancy city things<br>Sold by the man in the trilby hat<br>And the whiskers spread like wings<br>You can hear him sing<br>Oh you can hear him sing<br>Can I put you on, people can I put you on<br>Tell you that I love you people<br>Sing a salesman's song and put you on
