The song is about him working at Brooklyn Heights Promenade.
He was in charge primarily of cleaning the park.
Kids in the neighborhood dubbed him The Green Man because:
He was huge! (6'8")
He loved nature.
He kept the park clear of "undesirables"
He was a gentle giant, and got along with the kids very well.
