The Merry Go Round

Here we go 'round the merry-go-round
The merry-go-round of love
'Round and 'round the merry-go-round

True love sure looks tough
Some people gettin' on some are gettin' off
Some are getting ready to jump
Here we go 'round the merry-go-round
The merry-go-round of love

I just got off the merry-go-round
My heart was ready to mend
The last ride I had was awfully bad
Swore I'd never get on again
Then along came a girl who gave me a whirl
And I'm off on another high
I guess I'll have a ride on the merry-go-round
Until the day I die

Here we go 'round the merry-go-round
The merry-go-round of love
'Round and 'round the merry-go-round
True love sure looks tough
Some people gettin' on some are gettin' off
Some are getting ready to jump
Here we go 'round the merry-go-round
The merry-go-round of love

-Instrumentals-

How long will I ride the merry-go-round?
How long will it be this way?
How many times will I go around
Before I find a girl who'll stay?
Sometimes I think about my true love
Then the riding days are done

Here we go 'round the merry-go-round
The merry-go-round of love
'Round and 'round the merry-go-round
True love sure looks tough
Some people gettin' on some are gettin' off
Some are getting ready to jump
Here we go 'round the merry-go-round
The merry-go-round of love

Here we go 'round the merry-go-round
The merry-go-round of love
'Round and 'round the merry-go-round
True love sure looks tough
Some people gettin' on some are gettin' off
Some are getting ready to jump
Here we go 'round the merry-go-round
The merry-go-round of love
Here we go 'round the merry-go-round
The merry-go-round of love
