Friends listen well and I'll tell you a story I remember just like yesterday Off a footloose you lad ran off with the circus Much to his mama's dismay He was cleaning up after the elephants When the highflying trapeze girl smiled down In search of a handsome companion because She had just broken up with a clown With one graceful aerial flip he was smitten With her and her little tutu Standing there love struck he almost stumbled Into the elephants doing their tricks And the ringmaster smiled tipped his top hat and said Son bid adieu to your heart And his words rand true right there under the bleachers Soon after that big top went dark Now the old bearded lady whispered be careful On the train to the very next town And the handful of midgets who rode unicycles Peddled by with one smile and four frowns So he had a vague sense of uneasiness when His new sweetheart openned her door And he knew when he saw the clown standing behind her In front of her there stood one more Now I can't tell you if it was Barnum or Bailey To whom I handed the note But a tall skinny fella standing on stilts First read the words that I wrote It said "Promise I'll never again give my heart To a high-flying trapeze girl Goodbye cruel circus I'm off to join the world"
