Laughin' And Clownin'

(albüm: Night Beat - 1963)

Laughing and clowning
Just to keep from crying
I'm laughing and clowning
Just to keep from crying

I keep on trying to hide the fact
I've got a worried mind

Let me tell you, being life of the party
Seemed to be my role
Since you left me, baby, being life of the party
Seemed to be my role

I keep on trying to hide my feelings
Trying to hide my soul

Let me tell you what I do, I stand in the doorway
Watching all the girls go through
You might not believe me, baby, but I stand in the doorway
Watching all the girls go through

I keep on trying to me find someone
To take my mind off you, tickle 'em for me

I keep on laughing and clowning
To take my mind off you
