"I'm Just A Clown" lyrics - CHARLEY CROCKETT

Circus is coming through
Everybody knows
That when you purchase a ticket
You expect to get a show

[Chorus:]
Oh, take a look at me, I'm just a clown
And on my face I wear a frown
I've paid the cost to hang around
So take a look at me, I'm just a clown

[Instrumental Post-Chorus]

The joker stands in the middle
And turns a trick for you
Because sometimes you know it's better
To be thought of as a fool

[Chorus:]
Oh, take a look at me, I'm just a clown
And on my face I wear a frown
I've paid the cost to hang around
So take a look at me, I'm just a clown

[Instrumental Break - Guitar Solo]

[Bridge:]
I'm just a clown, that's what they say
I guess my clothes give me away
All of my friends have disappeared
You know it makes me wonder
If I was ever here

[Chorus:]
Take a look at me, I'm just a clown
And on my face I wear a frown
I've paid the cost to hang around
So take a look at me, I'm just a clown

[Instrumental Post-Chorus]

[Outro:]
I'm just a clown, take a look at me
I'm so lonesome I should charge a fee
I guess my clothes give me away
I'm just a clown, that's what they say
I'm just a clown
