Sneakin` out the back door late
It`s the middle of the night
For the joker
And you cover your tracks for sure that`s great
And you put out the light you`re the joker

Leave your callin` cards behind
Right on down the line
We`re back on the merry-go-round
We go back on the merry-go-round
With the joker
The joker

And you work yourself half to death
Just to make a living
Nobody rides for free
Not the joker – no no
And how quickly they forget you
How unforgiving
They can be
To the joker

(repeat chorus)

round and round and round an round
we go
with the joker
