Dick Flood - Clown of the Town Lyrics

It's 4 o'clock AM
I've been out all night again
Makin' every honky tonk around

You outta see me now
Boy, I'd bet that you'd be proud
You've made me the clown of the town
I go walkin' down the street
And everyone I meet
Is laughing about the way you let me down
They know that every night
In the glow of those dim lights
I become the clown of the town

Well I gets mighty mighty tired
But for me there's no sleepin'
Every time I shut my eyes
Your memory comes a creepin'
Something's gotta give
This just ain't no way to live
You've just made me the clown of the town

There's no substitute for you
But the bottle cures my blues
It makes my head go spinning round and round
I do funny funny things
They all say that I'm a scream
And they call me the clown of the town

Well I get mighty mighty tired
But for me there's no sleepin'
Every time i shut my eyes
Your memory comes a' creepin'
Something's gotta give
This just ain't no way to live
You've made me the clown of the town
