The Onion Man 🤣

The Onion Man 🤣

Can you recall the ‘Onion man’ who peddled on the street?

His bicycle was that heavy laden, I don’t know how he sat on his seat

And I reminisce this man, such the strangest of blokes

He turned up in our little town, selling onions to the local folks

Now when I think about him, back in those bygone days

Where on earth did he live about, that thought fills me with amaze

You see in our little town, everybody knew everyone

And the onion man was but a stranger, when all was said and done

Tho he travelled heavy laden only on his bike

Goodness me what a weight that must have been, and I bet he had a hike

Isn’t it funny and I find it a trifle sad

Those days when the onion man made his mysterious appearance, was the best I ever had!!!
