Baby cried the day the circus came to town
|
'cause she didn't want parades just passin' by her
|
So she painted on a smile and took up with some clown
|
While she danced without a net upon the wire
|
I know a lot about 'er 'cause, you see
|
Baby is an awful lot like me
|
|
Don't cry out loud
|
Just keep it inside, learn how to hide your feelings
|
Fly high and proud
|
And if you should fall, remember you almost had it all
|
|
Baby saw that when they pulled that big top down
|
They left behind her dreams among the litter
|
The different kind of love she thought she'd found
|
There was nothin' left but sawdust and some glitter
|
But baby can't be broken 'cause you see
|
She had the finest teacher-that was me-I told 'er
|
|
Don't cry out loud
|
Just keep it inside and learn how to hide your feelings
|
Fly high and proud
|
And if you should fall, remember you almost had it all
|
|
Don't cry out loud
|
Just keep it inside and learn how to hide your feelings
|
Fly high and proud
|
And if you should fall, remember you almost made it
|
|
Don't cry out loud
|
Just keep it inside and learn how to hide your feelings
|
Fly high and proud
|
And if you should fall, remember you almost had it all
|
