Come all you merry makers you wine drinkers and heart breakers
Pass me the bottle one more round
Come all of you love takers all you cheaters and lie makers
Fill me with happiness and bring on the clowns
There's a place around the corner that I can't wait to go
I can't stay away from there when I'm feeling low
Running from my problems cheating on my wife
Acting like a hobo running out on lines
Laughing loud having jokes and drinking too much wine
Gather round the table we're all one of a kind
So come all you merry makers...
I thought that I was happy till I saw you walkin' in
Thought the loud and noisy crowd you reached out your hands
I know I shouldn't be here I really don't belong
I'm proud that you still love me and you wanna take me home
So goodbye you merry makers you wine drinkers and heart breakers
I'll be gone when bottle passes round
So goodbye you love takers all you cheaters and lie makers
You'll never miss me when you bring on the clowns
Cause I'll be with my baby when you bring on the clowns
