Painter man, painter man
Who want to be a painter man
Painter man, painter man
Who want to be a painter man

Did adverts for T.V.
Household shops and brands of tea
Labels all around the cans

Painter man, painter man
Who want to be a painter man
Painter man, painter man
Who want to be a painter man

La, la, la, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la, la, la, la,
Painter man, painter man
Who want to be a painter man
