Death Of The Salesman. (original) (raw)

They used to sell wares
going 'round door to door,
now they've gone by the wayside
can't be seen anymore

The country has changed
not the same as before,
the door to door salesman
passed on into lore

Wal-Mart put an end to
the friendly corner store,
and customer service
isn't the same anymore

Then slowly the Internet
came in the back door,
and on-line buying
replaced a real store

So salesmen went the way
of Model T Fords,
and buying and selling
isn't fun anymore

The thing that is missing
that gets to the core,
there's no conversation
like there was before

And the traveling salesman
won't be seen evermore,
for friendliness died
at our bolted front doors.
