A       D       A                 B7           E
Well I'm Joe the Singin' Janitor, I'm at a theater near you
     A                                                                                 D
I'll also be appearing at the concerts you'll be hearing but I won't be singin' with a band
                    A                                          E             A
I'm Joe the Singin' Janitor, cleanin' up for the folks, gettin by the best I can

[Chorus]
            D
I'm in your school room, your pool room, your office and your home
                                     A
And I always give you service with a smile
         D
And most folks never think that a janitor needs
         A                  E
A little kindness once in a while
       A                                                                D
Well I really don't care if you think I'm square from my hat down to my shoes
                    A                                      E                  A
I'm Joe the Singin' Janitor, so go easy on a guy tryin' to make life easy for you

         A                                                 D             E           A
Well the schoolkids like to have a laugh on me, with their spitballs and chewin' gum mess
       A                                        B7                E                        
Makin' fun of my cornball singin' voice and the real square way I dress
         A                                                                          D
Well I'm gonna sing a song in the principal's office, so they better respect an old man
                     A                                          E             A
I'm Joe the Singin' Janitor, workin' hard for the kids, gettin' by the best I can

          A                                    D              E        A
Well if a broomstick was a microphone, I could show you all a thing or two
        A                                           B7                   E
I ain't on the stage, just a dirty old floor, and I got a lot of work to do
        A                                                     D
I can't carry a tune in a bucket but I carry that bucket with pride
                    A                                                E                   A
I'm Joe the Singin' Janitor, yeah I'm the man behind the mop I make everything sparkle & shine

[Chorus]
        A                       E                  A
Yeah go easy on a guy tryin' to make life easy for you
