Goodbye Cruel World Lyrics - Goodbye Cruel World: 1959-1962 - James Darren

(Goodbye cruel world) 

(Goodbye cruel world) 

Oh, goodbye cruel world, I'm off to join the circus 

Gonna be a broken-hearted clown 

Paint my face with a good-for-nothin' smile 

'cause a mean, fickle woman turned my whole world upside down 

(Goodbye cruel world) 

Farewell to love, I'm off to join the circus 

Gotta find a way to hide my tears 

Bet I'll have them rolling in the aisle 

And I'll forget that woman if it takes a hundred years 

Oh oh oh, step right up and take a look at a fool 

He's got a heart as stubborn as a mule 

C'mon everybody, he's good for a laugh 

And no one could tell his heart is broken in half 

Well, the joke's on me, I'm off to join the circus 

Oh, Mr. Barnum, save a place for me 

Shoot me out of a cannon, I don't care 

Let the people point at me and stare 

I'll tell the world that woman, wherever she may be 

That mean, fickle woman made a cryin' clown outta me 

(Goodbye cruel world) 

Shoot me out of a cannon, I don't care 

Let the people point at me and stare 

I'll tell the world that woman, wherever she may be 

That mean, fickle woman made a cryin' clown outta me 

Goodbye cruel world 

Goodbye cruel world 

Fade 

Goodbye cruel world 

Goodbye cruel world
