C I want a big red nose I want some floppy shoes F I want a squirty flower squirt it on you C Like all the bad clowns do G F C I want to juggle bowling pins in the sun G F C I want to join the circus, the circus looks like fun C I'll sit and work the gate or I can guess your weight F I'll even sell the corn dogs I don't care C As long as I am there G F C I'll hand out baseballs at the dunk tank G F C I'll ride my funny car laughing... all the way to the bank C Cause I'm a carney man I'm a carney man C I'm a carney man I'm a carney man carney man carney man C The human cannonball I'll rise above it all F C Up higher than the trapeze I can fly Oh god I'm gonna die G F C I am a carney worker I make two bucks G F C Every hour come to find out ... this job it really sucks C Cause I'm a carney man I'm a carney man C I'm a carney man I'm a carney man C You need a corndog I can tell You need a corn dog I can tell C I'm a carney man Notes: If you ever get the chance to see these guys, take advantage. They really keep the joint rockin' and have a good time. They also dress up the live version of Carney Man and make it more "colorful". You play the C chord with a hammer-on the B string, 3rd fret. If you ever hear the song you'll pick right up on the strum pattern. Please direct all suggestions, corrections, additions, and cussins to The Big L ([email protected])
