August Clown

I been up I been down There’s no reason to push me around I saw more than I’d like to see Won’t you turn down the volume on that big screen TV I fill it up then I give it up Tell you stories about the life I lead All these tall things that really matter to me They'll be blown to the four winds by the seven seas Girl like me I used to be the August Clown Singing in bars with big TVs in little towns I’ll take the slow road and I tell you what I can fit my treasures in the trunk of my car One more drink at the end of the bar Mesdames Monsieurs je voudrais vous presenter I wanted to be humble Wanted to be bad I put myself under so much stress and pressure I almost lost the best thing I had Girl like me I used be the august clown I would go singing in bars With big TVs in little towns Well I ain’t got no guarantee Come on look at me now Standing on my own two feet When it’s time to get down Then it comes the quiet time We can dance one dance To the old time songs Oh memories sublime If we dance one dance To the old time memories Sing along Singing in bars With big TVs in little towns I ain't got no guarantee Come on look at me look at me now Standing on my own two feet When it’s time to get down down down down down I said have a lovely afternoon baby Have a lovely life Have a lovely afternoon little lady Come on have a lovely life Have a lovely afternoon
