Just a quiet city sport[?]
With a wife and little kids to support
So immaculately dressed when he walks
Like a soldier on parade
.
He's a tin soldier man
Living in a little tin wonderland
Very happy little tin soldier man
When you set him on your knee
.
Every day you see his army march down the street
Changing guards at the high road
.
He's a tin soldier man
.
Wickie wa-waddle doo[?]
And he's got a little tin lady too
Just to put a little shine on his shoes
And keep his uniform tidy
.
