The Fuller Brush Man
Copyright Ric Seaberg 2012

Oh the fuller brush man used to come to our house in the summer
He'd appear on the step as the Fuller Brush rep after dinner
Mom would open the door and sequester the pets
Man the Fuller Brush Man smelled like cigarettes
When the Fuller Brush Man with his suitcase in hand came in summer

Man that suitcase was cool. It was loaded with brushes and shoehorns
There were cleaners and stuff, red ones
And brown ones and blue ones
Well my sisters came down and with big open eyes
Got a nice new toothbrush just their size
When the Fuller Brush Man with his suitcase in hand gave them new ones

Solo
Bridge
My mom bought a broom for sweeping the room
And my dad bought some razors and hand cream
Well I got a hairbrush and here is the lore
It spent 35 years in my sock drawer

When the Fuller Brush Man used to come to our house in the summer
When the doorbell would ring there was no single thing that was funner
Well I miss my mom and my dad that's f'shore
And the Fuller Brush Man when he walked through that door
When the Fuller Brush Man used to come to our house in the summer
