Jim prompts us Greet, Hey, Howdy. I’m stuck to find something I haven’t already used. I finally landed on Handy Man sung by James Taylor. Writer(s): Otis Blackwell Otis and Jimmy Jones.
Hey girls, gather round, listen to what I’m putting down
Hey baby, I’m your handy man
I’m not the kind to use a pencil or rule, I’m handy with love and I’m no fool
I fix broken hearts, I know that I truly can
If your broken heart should need repair, then I am the man to see
I whisper sweet things, you tell all your friends, they’ll come running to me
Here is the main thing that I want to say, I’m busy 24 hours a day
I fix broken hearts, I know that I truly can
Comma, comma, comma, comma, com, com, yeah, yeah, yeah
Comma, comma, comma, comma, com, com, oh they’ll come running to me
Here is the main thing I want to say, I’m busy 24 hours a day
I fix broken hearts, baby
I’m your handy man
Comma, comma, comma, comma, com, com, yeah, yeah, yeah
Comma, comma, comma, comma, com, com, yeah, yeah, yeah
That’s me
Comma, comma, comma, comma, com, com
I’m your handy man, yeah yeah, yeah
That’s me
Comma, comma, comma, comma, com, com
I’m your handy man, yeah yeah, yeah
I have never heard of this song before but it such a mellow song! I love it!

Totally forget about this James Taylor song. He spent a lot of his life living in Chapel Hill NC

Never heard this version before. I quite like it. Very different from Jimmy Jones’ original.

I like both versions but the one sung by James Taylor was the first one I heard so it holds a special memory

Great choice Jill. I never get tired of listening to this song. The line, “Comma, comma, comma, comma, com, com” is very orgasmic.
