lyrics

That was me on the carousel
Diving down deep in the wishing well
Way out somewhere in middle America
Painted ladies and vaudeville
Counting up counterfeit dollar bills
Look quick boy, better do what they're telling you

On the high wire, baby I'm a low rider
Honey I'm a slip- slider
Baby I'm a just-one-nighter
Hey Rube, guess I'm bound to lose
Carry round these circus blues
Circus blues

Jugglers and acrobats
Shoeshine stand by the laundromat
Always had my switchblade handy
Ring masters and rope walkers
August clowns and straight talkers
They ain't clouds, that's cotton candy

On the high wire, baby I'm a low rider
Honey I'm a slip- slider
Baby I'm a just-one-nighter
Hey Rube, guess I'm bound to lose
Carry round these circus blues
Circus blues
