the AA man.

 Annie Mills has suggested. The highway man, by Aldred Noyes... Mutter mutter

The weather was quite overcast, the clouds were lined with rain

I'd just then put my washing out, Oh my! its such a pain

And once again i ventured out to gather all my smalls

And saw an AA van parking. Parking? Parking!

And saw this van is parking by my little garden wall

 

Hello, i did then utter, but no driver could be seen

I bet my blooming neighbours, said to park upon my green

but suddenly i noticed him, and then he soon saw me

He seemed to be quite flustered. Flustered- in understatement 

He seemed to be quite flustered, as he went to walk to me

His jacket was fluorescent, pulled over ears and nose

With undercoat of nylon, with a hint of cheap viscose 

I asked, are you lost, I've no car at home!

He answered, whoops, ahem, whoops

He answered, 'Ive locked my keys inside, can i use your phone
