1
I've been quite the traveler ever since I hit the road
2
And the Sullen county carnival has been my earn in gold
3
I've been quite alone since I remember when
4
I turned my ultimatums into chips and cashed them in
5
I used to run the Ferris wheel but that'd be hard to prove
6
I can't stand to see a rolling wheel propped up so it can't move
7
I used to run the carousel hell that's just round and round
8
Never liked to see them ponies painted up and bolted down
9
The only thing that keeps me from staying here is leaving
10
The only thing that saves me from it all is I'll be gone
11
Just when I could trust in all the things that I believe in
12
I had to pack it up and move along
13
And I'll tell you the boys I'm not the only one
14
I was a straight man at the ring toss but that was just a jaunt
15
I can't see throwing rings around things you don't really want
16
I could run the roller coaster but that might break my heart
17
So much hard travelin' just to wind up where you start
18
Now I just work the gateway and I'm pretty satisfied
19
Little booth is red and blue and I just sit inside
20
I just take your money and give tickets out in trade
21
Think about my life and all the promises I made
22
The only thing that keeps me from staying here is leaving...
23
Who's running from the things they've left undone
