There’s a fella’ I know.

His name is Sloppy Joe.

His hair is long and stringy.

It hasn’t been washed in days.

He wears a long blue shirt untucked

With spots of faded gray.

His pants are full of holes.

His shoes are tattered and worn.

Whenever a passerby sees Sloppy,

He looks away in scorn.

Sloppy Joe doesn’t care.

He likes the way he looks.

All day long Sloppy studies

His super hero comic books.

Please be kind to Sloppy.

He’s really kind of shy.

Just walk right up to Sloppy

And give him a friendly hi.

He’ll shake his hand and thank you.

I think you’ll understand.

That Sloppy is really very cool.

He’s a kind and decent man.
