Merry Go Round (Take 4) - Charlie Parker

You know he’s gotta get away

To the merry-go-round and round

Count the times that he laid awake at night thinkin'

Am I going down now?

Am I going down?

Am I going down now?

Ooh!

It’s not easy putting on a smile

You’re alone, lost and found

She waits home alone

Just to love him through the night, thinking

He’s been gone so long now

Is he coming home?

He’s been gone so long now, ooh!

Merry-go-round and round x 11

You know he’s gotta get away

To the merry-go-round and round

Count the times that he laid awake at night thinking

Am I going down now?

Am I going down?

Am I going down now?

Ooh!

Merry-go-round and round x 11

Merry-go-round and round x 11

The one that I love

Waits home alone

Just to love him through the night

I’m coming home babe.
