I'm sorry to disturb you but you look a kindly sort I'm looking for a friend of mine he's white and not what you'd call short Six feet if he's an inch, pink-eyed and dressed with perfect care From ears to tail a gentleman and singularly rare Have you seen my good friend Harvey We stopped in down the street We'd only had a beer or two When he said he had some friends to meet And Harvey is so friendly He makes me very proud To say I am his special friend To everyone out loud He came this way I'm certain 'cause he leaves a special glow On all the faces in the places he might get to know It seemed so very peaceful when I looked into this bar I thought old Harvey must be here, "My goodness there you are" Have you met my good friend Harvey He's really quite sublime Come out and do the town with us I can guarantee a real fine time For Harvey is so friendly The good time never ends And all the folks we haven't met Are just our will-be friends Whenever I'm with Harvey I have all the time I please The pleasant hours last twice as long and pass with grace and ease But all the dull and boring times that plague our lives each day Dance on before you blink an eye when Harvey comes to stay Say Hello to my friend Harvey And come along today He'll slip a month into an hour And we'll tour from here to Mandalay And when our lunch is over And we've wandered home again We'll all go out to some new bar And make another friend
