For the World

I knew a boy
who wore an old hat
he worked at the paper
he drove an old Chrysler
he liked to sing

a song in the morning
and after work he'd sing
a song before supper
for the word

I saw this boy
once in a while
his name was Alfred
I gave him a dollar
to sing a song

he sang in the morning
and after work he'd sing
a song before supper
for the word

he sang in the morning
and after work he'd sing
a song before supper
for the word
