putting books in the street libraries

Verse 1 Strolling through the streets at break of day Books in his backpack, on his way Stories of hope, wisdom and fun For anyone walking under the sun Verse 2 Little street libraries, quiet and small Standing on corners, welcoming all From kids to elders, rich or poor There’s always a book worth opening the door Chorus Thank you, Street Library Man Doing what only a caring soul can You drop off books into the Adelaide street library Planting little seeds of hope in the community Verse 3 Paperbacks worn, hardcovers new Sci-fi, poetry, history too A novel can travel where we can’t be From a street-side box to infinity Bridge Every book’s a journey, a voice, a friend A message of kindness you don’t have to spend No price, no profit, no master plan Just sharing the world, Street Library Man Chorus Thank you, Street Library Man Doing what only a caring soul can You drop off books into the Adelaide street library Building a culture of sharing in the community Outro So if you see him walking, books in his hand Know you’re looking at a one-person movement, not a brand Just pages, people, and a simple plan Read, share, repeat — Street Library Man
