Tattoo'd lady, Bearded Baby, they're my family
When I was lonely, something told me where I could always be
Where I could push the penny, if you got any you'll meet me down
At the shooting gallery
You know I'm a fairground baby,
Wonder what made me fall for the Pearly Queen.
Well I spent my youth under a canvas roof
As I roamed from town to town
I'm not foolin' when I say I got no schoolin'
Never liked the class bell sound
From inside the caravan, I hear the fairground band
Soundin' good as they can be
I can't be found if you look around
Tomorrow we'll be gone by dawn
I hear on the loudspeaker say that fire-eater is a really fine sight to see
You know he's a death cheater, some kind of central heater
Be sure to save a seat for me
Let me tell you 'bout wicked Sadie, she's no baby
The Law came and tried to close her sideshow down
But soon she had the D.A. cheering, the Police c***f wearing her garther for a crown
Well I spent my youth under a canvas roof
As I roamed from town to town
I'm not foolin' when I say I got no schoolin'
Never liked the classlbell sound
From inside the caravan, I hear the fairground band
Soundin' good as they can be
I can't be found if you look around
Tomorrow we'll be gone by dawn
( repeat 1st verse )
