Three Ring Circus Lyrics

The whistle blows as he makes his rounds
He's seen every town west of Mississippi
He's just a face painted all in smiles
Jumpin' up and down and makin' people happyThough deep inside a shadow grows
He could laugh and no one knows
There's a lonely man insideLife is a three ring circus
All of the ups and downs of a carousel
That I know so wellLife is a three ring circus
Just one little ride on a merry-go-round
Goin' round and round and round and round and roundHe does the best like the minstrels did
Just to please the kids and keep the people laughing
But no one knows that beneath the clothes
And his turned up nose lives a lonely beggarHe needs the love he spreads around
But in life he's just a clown
Till they bring the curtain downLife is a three ring circus
All of the ups and downs of a carousel
That I know so wellLife is a three ring circus
Just one little ride on a merry-go-round

Goin' round and round and round and round and roundHe needs the love that can't be found
But you're just too blind to see
That the clown is really needyLife is a three ring circus
All of the ups and downs of a carousel
That I know so wellLife is a three ring circus
Just one little ride on a merry-go-round
Goin' round and round and round and round and roundGoin' round and round and round and round and round
Goin' round and round and round and round and round
Goin' round and round and round and round and round
Goin' round and round and round and round and round
Goin' round and round and round and round and round
