Lyrics:
The carnival is closed for the winter The gates are full of nails All my belongings in a camper truck In front of some Hell Hole Motel. The rides are wrapped in canvass There's a smell of snow in the air They're taking apart the ferris wheel Like a game of solitaire. Love o love I will be home When the trees are bare and brown For without you I'm just a carnival bum Whose fate goes round and round Whose fate goes round and round When Little Maggie lost Big Earle Man, That was about it for her She was mia in the Day to Day The next 3 years were a blur I left home when Maggie checked out I been a snowbird ever since I work the curcuit in the summertime Come Winter I jump the Fence Love o love I will be home When the trees are bare and brown For without you I'm just a carnival bum Whose fate goes round and round Whose fate goes round and round Darkness comes with the headlights. It gives me a little relief. I feel a little more like a leaf in the wind And a little bit less like a thief. Sometimes I feel I stole life itself I'm as lucky as a man can be The carnival is closed for the winter But it don't matter to me Love o love I will be home When the trees are bare and brown For without you I'm just a carnival bum Whose fate goes round and round Whose fate goes round and round
