Waylon Jennings - Carnival Song lyrics
Verse 1: Now I've been quite the traveler Ever since I hit the road And the sullen county carnival Has been my earn in gold Verse 2: I've been quite alone Since I remember when I turned my ultimatums Into chips and cashed them in Verse 3: I used to run the Ferris wheel But that'd be hard to prove I can't stand to see a rolling wheel Propped up so it can't move Verse 4: I used to run the carousel Hell, that's just round and round I never liked to see them ponies Painted up and bolted down Chorus: The only thing that keeps me from stayin' here is leavin' The only thing that saves me from it all is I'll be gone Just when I could trust in all the things that I believe in I had to pack it up and move along And I'll tell you the boys I'm not the only one Verse 5: I was a straight man at the ring toss But that was just a jaunt I can't see throwin' rings around Things you don't really want Verse 6: I could run the roller coaster But that might break my heart So much hard travelin' Just to wind up where you start Verse 7: Now I just work the gateway And I'm pretty satisfied My little booth is red and blue And I just sit inside Verse 8: I just take your money And give tickets out in trade Think about my life And all the promises I made Chorus: The only thing that keeps me from stayin' here is leavin' The only thing that saves me from it all is I'll be gone Just when I could trust in all the things that I believe in I had to pack it up and move along And I'll tell you the boys I'm not the only one Who's runnin' from the things he's left undone |
