Another tourist runs to town today |
|
Another florist in some solemn way |
|
Arranges flowers for a funeral bouquet, or a wedding. |
|
And theirs a shop that's down a block |
|
Where sweet iced tea will never stop |
|
And I just can't believe how hot it's getting. |
|
Another year for playing children |
|
And writing songs for them to sing |
|
And I sit here beside my window, I'm not alone |
|
And there's jubalee. |
|
There's a circus in a town somewhere |
|
Beside six little dogs a clown is there |
|
People laughing at the color of his hair, or what he's wearing. |
|
The clown's in-love with a contortionist |
|
Beside the lion cage he tells her this |
|
And as they kiss they seem to miss that little dogs and elephants are staring. |
|
Another year for the romantic |
|
Unwritten songs we used to sing |
|
As I sit here beside my window, I'm not alone |
|
And there's jubalee. |
