I thought this Tommy Tucker song was very suggestive (and funny) for its time (1939). Vocals by Kerwin Somerville.

I am not a Tommy Tucker fan, but that is a riot!

Re: The Man Who Comes Around
... When I grow to be a man, I don't want to be, a butcher or a baker, no siree, don't want to be a lawyer, with an office downtown. I just want to be; the man that comes around.
I've committed the entire song to memory years ago. Too funny.
BTW, my copy is by the Sweet Violet Boys.

Re: The Man Who Comes Around
I just received a copy of this record and love it.
Note that it was re-recorded on Columbia red label and it is not as good as the Vocation release.
