Human Cannonball Lyrics - Singles - Webb Wilder

Saw the add in the paper, said, the hell with it all 

Took a gig with the circus as the Human Cannonball 

It didn't take long to learn my trade 

Very first show, man, I blew the folks away 

Now the job's a little risky but I'm my own boss 

I gotta tell ya, Jack, it really gets me off 

I live in a tent with The World's Strongest Man 

When I met him [Incomprehensible] broke my hand 

My baby, she's a lady in the high wire act 

When I'm feeling tense, she walks on my back 

Now the pay's okay, the benefits are great 

I get to shoot the bull with the World's Smartest Ape 

I'm the Human Cannonball 

I'm the Human Cannonball, y'all 

Well, I'm a hot shot, I'm a cool breeze 

Underneath the big top, I'm the big cheese 

I lay it on the line, let it all hang 

Where I go, least I know, I'll go with a bang 

I reckon, I'ma living every kid's dream 

It's a buzz, it's a gas, it's a real scream 

I'm the Human Cannonball 

I'm the Human Cannonball, y'all 

Alright folks, just make yourself at home 

Have a snow cone and enjoy the show 

They put me on the cover of the USA Today 

Tell the world what the Human Cannonball got to say 

On the 'Carson Show', they're saying, HC 

What you do you got to be right outta your trees 

Well, it's a little risky but I'm my own boss 

I got to tell you, John, it really gets me off 

I'm the Human Cannonball 

I'm the Human Cannonball, y'all 

I'm the Human Cannonball 

I'm the Human Cannonball, y'all 

Now blast off, I said blast off
