Jersey Clowns

Josh Rouse · Other Songs - Josh Rouse

Tell the boys in the back

That Danny's crashed his Cadillac

He ain't hurt anybody

At least he wasn't drinking



He was just outside Detroit

You know his roads they are all broke

He can't get any place

There ain't no point in driving



He's flying in today

He's been all around the U.S.A.

He's seen every state

At least twice



Who's gonna break the news

That his lady's run loose

You know it's getting around

I've gotta tell him the truth



But, I don't want to do it

Don't want to bring him down

Cause being down

With some jersey clowns

Can almost drive you insane



What a shame he's been away

Cause he's worked so hard

To pay those bills

He's got two kids



From his marriage before

And I wonder what makes him stay

You know it ain't the first time

She's played him like this



A thousand times

It won't be the last



Who's gonna break the news

That his lady's run loose

Yeah, it's getting around

I've gotta tell him the truth



But, I don't want to do it

Don't want to bring him down

'Cause being down

With some jersey clowns

Can almost drive you insane



Tell the boys in the back

If they've got some room for Dan

I'm sure he'd be grateful

He's coming home today



Who's gonna break the news

That his lady's run loose

Yeah, it's getting around

I've gotta tell him the truth



But, I don't want to do it

Don't want to bring him down

'Cause being down

With some jersey clowns



Can almost drive you insane

Being down

With some jersey clowns

Can almost drive you insane

Insane
