Carpet Man - Johnny Rivers

When you see some puddles on the ground

You lay down so she don’t have to walk around

You think that will protect her from the rain

But you’ll never ever stop the pain

She walks all over you

She knows she can

You’re the carpet man

You’re the carpet man

You take such care to keep that girl’s feet clean

Like she’s some kind of figurine

The world’s so far below her it’s not her scene

She uses you to stand between

She walks all over you

She knows she can

You’re the carpet man

You’re the carpet man

I would think you’d get tired of hurting

Every now and then

It’s no good down there

And that’s for certain and carpets do get then

And that’s when they have to be thrown away

That’s what she’ll say to herself some sunny day

And she’ll say come to my wedding

And of course, you do

And then the groom and her

Will have a dance on you

She walks all over you

She knows she can

You’re the carpet man

You’re the carpet man

Carpet man

Carpet man

Carpet man

Carpet man…
