Timmy

He is quite a good bloke Timmy and for others he does care And he would give you his last dollar his type of person rare And though his generosity has been abused he has been known to say What goes around always comes around life's always been this way. He is a free lance plumber a useful enough trade And one might say he earns every dollar he is paid And when he works for some one on welfare or on a pension when the job is done he say Just ten dollars an hour to you a third of my usual pay. He doesn't have a wife or lady friend or children still he is only twenty four And the young woman that he once loved not his woman any more To those who ask him about her he says it wasn't meant to be I was not the fellow for her and she was not the one for me. Old Mrs Tuthill his next door neighbour she is living on her own And since her husband Bill this life departed financial hardship she has known But young Timmy mows her grass and tends her garden and his services are free And Mrs Tuthill she will tell you there is none so great as he. He is one of those rare people who performs a good deed every day And for to help out the less fortunate he goes out of his way And the goodness that is in him mirrored in his handsome and happy face And it truly can be said about him that his heart's in the right place. Timmy is one of my neighbours and he is a real good bloke And he always seems so happy and good for a laugh and a joke He would give you his last dollar and people like him are rare And for the less fortunate of the neighbourhood he is one who truly care.
