On the windy beach
The sun is shining through
With weather fairWhite horses riding
On the seas pasture
Onto the sandOver the dunes came a traveling man
Sack on back wild flowers in his hand
Old rusty cans, pebbles 'bedded in the sand
Stand and stareScratching his beard
Through the grass he steered
His sandy shoeDisappearing in the dips
Pondering and wandering alongNice as you please comes the traveling man
Drinking a bottle of milk in his hand
Speaking to no one in particular but happilyDown where young gulls dance
Driftwood lying drying
For the fireYellow beak and sleek
Now the gulls are crying
Flying higherOut from the sea came a little green crab
Taking the sun the morning being very drab
Old rusty cans, pebbles 'bedded in the sand
Stand and stareThe tinker and the crab
The tinker and the crab
The tinker and the crab
