Can I Put You On (Original Soundtrack Recording)

I work for the foundry for a penny and a half a day

Like a blind street musician I never see those who pay

It's a dirty work in Birmingham

Better deal for a Sheffield man

If he can rivet then his kids can buy

Candy from the candy manAnd the van that comes around weekends

Selling fancy city things

Sold by the man with the Trilby hat

And the whiskers spread like wings

You can hear him sing

Oh, you can hear him sing"Can I put you on?

People, can I put you on?

Tell you that I love you people

Sing a salesman's song and put you on"And a second cousin works in the pits in Newcastle on Tyne

And he don't care if it rains outside, there's a coal dust on his mind

It's a dirty work in Manchester

But the crew gets paid its gelt

Bang on the bell on Friday

You buys a little something for yourselfAnd the van that comes around on weekends

Selling fancy city things

Sold by the man in the Trilby hat

And the whiskers spread like wings

You can hear him sing

Oh, you can hear him sing"Can I put you on?

People, can I put you on?

Tell you that I love you people

Sing a salesman's song and put you on"And the van that comes around weekends

Selling fancy city things

Sold by the man with the Trilby hat

And the whiskers spread like wings

You can hear him sing

Oh, you can hear him sing"Can I put you on?

People, can I put you on?

Tell you that I love you people

Sing a salesman's song and put you on""People, can I put you on?

People, can I put you on?

People, can I put you on?"
