The Fuller Brush Man
   ( "The Fryin' Pan",, John Prine}


   I come home from work this evening,
   Ate cold beans from a can,
   And I asked the wife 'whatcha do today',
   She said 'I spoke with The Fuller Brush Man'.

   Chorus

   And he sold me a broom
   I mean azoom zoom zoom,
   Best whisk of my life,
   Sit back babe and watch me ride, you got a happy smilin' wife.

   Well I sat there lookin' stupid,
   And I cursed my rotten fate
   And the wife and her broom flew around the room,
   She said " it's twenty years too late"

   Chorus
   
   And he sold her a broom,
   I mean avoom voom voom,
   Best whisk of my life,
   Sit back babe and watch me ride, you got a happy smilin' wife,

   Well I was feelin' useless
   And I know you would be too,
   As she said to me, " that salesman dear,
   He's got a fuller brush than you".

   Chorus

   And he sold me a broom,
   I mean aboom boom boom,
   Best whisk of my life,
   Sit back babe and watch me ride, you got a happy smilin' wife
