Carnival Bum |
| The carnival is closed for the winter |
| The gates are full of nails |
| All my belongings in a camper truck |
| In front of some Hell Hole Motel |
| The rides are wrapped in canvass |
| There’s a smell of snow in the air |
| They’re taking apart the ferris wheel |
| Like a game of solitaire |
| Love o love I will be home |
| When the trees are bare and brown |
| For without you I’m just a carnival bum |
| Whose fate goes round and round |
| Whose fate goes round and round |
| When Little Maggie lost Big Earle |
| Man, That was about it for her |
| She was MIA in the Day to Day |
| The next 3 years were a blur |
| I left home when Maggie checked out |
| I been a snowbird ever since |
| I work the curcuit in the summertime |
| Come Winter I jump the Fence |
| Love o love I will be home |
| When the trees are bare and brown |
| For without you I’m just a carnival bum |
| Whose fate goes round and round |
| Whose fate goes round and round |
| Darkness comes with the headlights |
| It gives me a little relief |
| I feel a little more like a leaf in the wind |
| And a little bit less like a thief |
| Sometimes I feel I stole life itself |
| Im as lucky as a man can be |
| The carnival is closed for the winter |
| But it dont matter to me |
| Love o love I will be home |
| When the trees are bare and brown |
| For without you I’m just a carnival bum |
| Whose fate goes round and round |
| Whose fate goes round and round |
