Looking for harry, can anyone identify a song with these lyrics? - Robin Smith - 17-10-2013
I work in a retail store and I've heard a song several times with the chorus "dont go looking for harry" other parts are "he may be here he may be there" "no need to take a wife harry had a full life". I have scoured the internet for any signs of this song's existence and found no trace of it. It sounds like the beatles but I believe it is more modern.

Robin, you might want to go to the office where you work, they would have the track, or c.d they are playing.. the song would be listed on that c.d. just my thought.

Half of Harry walked down the street
The other went the opposite way
Half of Harry talk you off your feet
But he didn't have a lot to say
Harry always ate half of everything
Never finishing the other
Mom said don't talk with your mouth full
And Harry always minded mother
So don't go looking for Harry
He may be here, he may be there
Without a load to carry
He doesn't need to care
No need to take a wife
Harry had a full life.... but he wasn't
He's the guy with his head in the sky
His feet tied firmly to the ground
All through the day he finds he's losing his way
'Cause his address book's in the lost and found
He's the man without a plan
Never worries about the weather
He passes time changing his mind
The reaper thinks he's rather clever
Harry where did you go
Is he fast, is he slow, I don't think so
He's just a traveling one man show
Half of Harry went to bed
The other got up to greet the day
Some people think he'd be better off dead
Than to lead a double life this way
