"There Goes the Beer Man"

V1      Right about the time the bars are all closing
            He's up and at 'em, toasting waffles that are frozen
            It's a habit he's had in the morning for years
            Before he heads into work and starts shifting gears

CH      There goes the beer man, all loaded down
         With liquid refreshments, he'll be in your town
         There goes the beer man, a hop and malt hero
         A strong supply chain, he'll never leave your case count at zero
         There goes the beer man

 V2      If you find him double parked he's just doing his job
            He won't be long unless he forgot
            The extra keg marked for the party at John's
            Or the ten case lot for sand and surf at Ron's

 CH    There goes the beer man, eatin' on the fly
         The way he weaves through traffic, man can he drive
         There goes the beer man, a legend in his time
         He'll make sure your favorite brew is worth every dime
         There goes the beer man

 V3      If you stop by the Bowery, you might get to see
            This tailgate leader, before he's back on the street
            He's proud of his work, and the job that he does
            And this land he lives in, that he'll tell you he loves
        
  Ch    There goes the beer man, stirrin' up the dust
         Like a stagecoach driver, headin' for a gold rush
         There goes the beer man, havin' too much fun
         His five o'clock shadow says he's almost done
        
Tag    There goes the beer man, one more stop to go
         Before its home to the Mrs. and his favorite show
         There goes the beer man, nodding off to sleep.......
         Before he knows it, it'll be a quarter 'til three...
           
                                                Spoken:  Night  Night  Beer Man
