THE POSTMAN IS A HAPPY MAN, by ANNETTE WYNNE
Last Line: Pleasing everybody is his main delight
Subject(s): Postmen
Last Line: Pleasing everybody is his main delight
Subject(s): Postmen
THE postman is a happy man,
Because he does the best he can
To make the people's faces bright.
He comes along with willing feet.
He knows each person, house, and street,
I think his life is quite a treat.
Bringing crispy letters is his main delight.
He carries round a bag of leather.
His shoes are made for every weather;
And taking all things in together
The postman is a happy man
Because he does the best he can,
He makes the people's faces blight,
Pleasing everybody is his main delight.
