Life is A Carnival
(Robbie Robertson)

You can walk on the water, drown in the sand
You can fly off a mountaintop anybody can
Run away, run away, run away –it’s the restless age
Look away, look away, look away –you can turn the page Hey, buddy, would you like to buy a watch real cheap
Here on the street
I got six on each arm and two more round my feet
Life is a carnival–believe it or not
Life is a carnival–two bits a shot
Saw a man with the jinx in the third degree
From trying to deal with people–people you can’t see
Take away, take away, take away, this house of mirrors Give away, give away, give away, all the souvenirs
We’re all in the same boat ready to float off the edge of the world The flat old world
The street is a sideshow from the peddler to the corner girl Life is a carnival–it’s in the book
Life is a carnival–take another look
Hey, buddy, would you like to buy a watch real cheap
Here on the street
I got six on each arm and two more round my feet
Life is a carnival–believe it or not
Life is a carnival–two bits a shot
