There`s a man I meet,Walks up our street,He`s a worker for the council,Has
been twenty years
F

And he takes no lip off nobody,And litter off the gutter,Puts it in a bag,And
never thinks to mutter
F

And he packs his lunch in a Sunblest bag,The children call him Bogie,He never
lets on,But I know `cause he once told me
F

He let me know a secret,About the money in his kitty,He`s gonna buy a
dinghy,Gonna call her Dignity

And I`m telling this story
In a faraway scene
Sipping down Raki
And reading Maynard Keynes
And I`m thinking about home
And all that means
And a place in the winter
For Dignity
