[00:00.00] By townes van zandt
[00:19.59]The drunken clown's still hanging round
[00:22.50]But it plain the laughter's all died down
[00:25.56]The tears you tried so hard to hide
[00:30.96]Are flowin'
[00:31.50]A blind man with his knife in hand
[00:34.32]Has convinced himself that he understands
[00:37.62]I wish him well, miss carousel
[00:40.50]But i gotta be a-goin'
[00:45.39]Won't you come and get me when
[00:47.61]You're sure that you don't need me then
[00:50.85]I stand outside your window
[00:53.70]And proudly call your name
[01:01.20]The ladies been told that all of gold
[01:04.17]Is worth so much it can't be sold
[01:07.20]No time to weep she'll need her sleep
[01:09.72]Tomorrow
[01:12.69]When she carries her face to the market place
[01:16.11]And bets it on the opening race
[01:18.78]She can ring her bells, miss carousel,
[01:21.90]But her singing brings me sorrow
[01:42.54]It's always done every mother's son
[01:45.66]Is shown that grown men never run
[01:48.51]And so they fight with all the might
[01:51.33]Inside them
[01:54.24]When the battle's been fought and they all been taught
[01:57.42]That the trick is just not being caught
[02:00.42]Will you give them hell, miss carousel,
[02:03.33]When they're begging you to hide them
[02:23.76]When the need arose your eyes fell closed
[02:27.12]You clamped your fingers round your nose
[02:30.09]Would you say that's any way
[02:32.70]To judge him
[02:35.85]You haven't got the authority
[02:38.76]To kill him in the first degree
[02:41.46]But would you feel compelled, miss carousel,
[02:44.40]If you have something to begrudge him
[03:04.77]On a velvet beach far beneath the reach
[03:08.10]Of those that come to pray and preach
[03:11.07]The natural man who tries to stand
[03:13.74]Is fallin
[03:16.77]How long will it be before he sees
[03:19.95]You own his legs but his mind is free
[03:22.71]Only you can tell, miss carousel,
[03:25.41]How long will he be crawling?
[03:46.41]The castle walls has grown so tall
[03:49.29]Seem there ain't no hope at all
[03:52.26]To reach the top even though you stop
[03:54.96]For breathin'
[03:57.81]But i ain't gonna try to make you cry
[04:01.14]The tear drops couldn't find your eye
[04:04.08]It's all been swell, miss carousel,
[04:06.99]But the time has come for leavin'
