1941 (Demo) - Harry Nilsson[00:00:00]
Well in 1941 a happy father had a son[00:00:07]
And by 1944 father walks right out the door[00:00:13]
And in '45 the mom and son were still alive[00:00:18]
But who could tell in '46 if the two were to survive[00:00:23]
Well the years were passing quickly[00:00:28]
But not fast enough for him[00:00:30]
So he close his eyes through '55[00:00:33]
Then he opened them up again[00:00:36]
When he looked around[00:00:38]
He saw a clown and the clown seemed very gay[00:00:40]
And he set that night to join[00:00:43]
That circus clown and run away[00:00:46]
Well he followed every railroad track[00:01:13]
And every highway sign[00:01:16]
And he had a girl in each new town[00:01:18]
And the towns he left behind[00:01:21]
And the open road was the only road he knew[00:01:23]
But the color of his dreams were slowly turning into blue[00:01:28]
The he met a girl[00:01:33]
The kind of girl he wanted all his life[00:01:35]
She was soft and kind[00:01:38]
And good to him so he took her for his wife[00:01:40]
And they got a house not far from town[00:01:44]
And in a little while[00:01:46]
The girl had seen the doctor[00:01:49]
And she came home with a smile[00:01:51]
Now in 1961 a happy father had a son[00:01:54]
And by 1964 the father walks right out the door[00:01:59]
And in '65 the mom and son were still around[00:02:04]
But what will happen to the boy[00:02:10]
When the circus comes to town[00:02:12]
