I waved to the man with the golden baton
And I waved through the rain pouring down
And I waved till the last of the music was gone
The day that the circus left town
My heart still recalls when it seems to my mind
That my heart only knows how to frown
How my heart almost broke when they left me behind
The day that the circus left town
I asked for a job doing anything
Feed the elephants, carry water, anything!
But the man said they didn't have anything
And turned me away, turned me away!
And away went the lions and the tigers so wild
And away went my beautiful clown
And away went my very last day as a child
The day that the circus left town
