Intro:
I would like to invite my friends who helped me write this song
From Lubbock, Texas Mr. Ross Cooper and from Florida, Mr. Randall Clay
Verse 1:
Train rolls in at ten A.M
Kill a lamb for the lions find some water for the elephants
The monkey on my shoulder got a monkey on his back
Can I bum a cigarette he done smoked my last pack
Put up the big top, put down the saw dust
We don't open 'til the morning
Step right up!
Chorus:
We got beer for the bearded lady
And the Siamese twins are into opium
And the trapeze guys are all high on cocaine
That they buy from the guy who used to drive the train
We got water for the elephants
Everybody knows the greatest party on Earth
Is the circus down on Ringling Road
Verse 2:
Well the tattoo'd man is making out with snake lady
Just to piss off the human cannonball that she'd been dating
The clown got wasted, now he's throwing his shoes
At a bear on a bike with a bottle of booze
The tight rope walker is too damned high
Welcome to a freak show Friday night!
Chorus: (X3)
We got beer for the bearded lady
And the Siamese twins are into opium
And the trapeze guys are all high on cocaine
That they buy from the guy who used to drive the train
We got water for the elephants
Everybody knows the greatest party on Earth
Is the circus down on Ringling Road
Ringling road, down on Ringling Road
Lada dada la dadada ladada
Ringling Road (Live) was written by Randall Clay & Ross Cooper & William Clark Green.
