He's a lovely man with a whistle on his lips
A painter and he loves to paint red tulips
A good guy and a friend to everyone he meets
And when he buys new paint in the little store
You see him smile when he walks out the door ... Uhuhuuuuuuuu
He said play me a picture
I said paint me a song
For many years we've come together each day
I sing about flowers and he paints for hours and when I go
I say "See you Monday"
We sat down on his balcony
Watched the people from above and drank a cup of tea
I said, lets turn the tables for just one day
He gave me his brushes and I gave him my guitar
We smiled and he started to play ... Uhuhuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
He said play me a picture
I said paint me a song
For many years we've come together each day
I sing about flowers and he paints for hours and when I go
I say "See you Monday"
One day a man came and said.
I pay millions for your art
The painter said "thanks, I'm as rich as I can be
'Cause I've all the things you can't buy ...
With money" ... Uhuhuuuuu
He said play me a picture
I said paint me a song
For many years we've come together each day
I sing about flowers and he paints for hours and when I go
I say "See you Monday"
