I Know A Man
I know a man
Who could sell cheese to the moon
A book of riddles to a monkey
A lonely sound to a loon
This same man
Could sell colored flames to a fire
Broken wings to an angel
Salty tears to a Town Crier
I know a man
Who could sell green to a leaf
Bark to a dog
If it's up the wrong tree
This same man
Could sell a shadow to the night
Sassafras honey to a bee
Maybe to a might
I know a man
Who could sell gravity to the earth
To help hold it down
For all that it's worth
This same man
Took all that he could
From what little he had
And left it for good
I know a man
Who knows a man
If I said anymore
You would know that I am
This same man
Who could do all of this
Would gladly give it away
If it was sealed with a kiss
