Lyrics

I’ve got to stand (F)tall. You know a man that can’t sin (F)crawl. For when he knows you tell of lies and he lets them pass so by, then he’s (C7)not a man at (F)all. Don’t want your love an y more. Don’t want your kiss es, that’s for sure. I die each (Dm)time I hear this (Bb)sound. Here he (F)comes. That’s Cath y’s clown. When you see me shed a (F)tear You and you know that it’s sin (F)cere, don’t when you think it’s kind of sad that you’re treat ing me so bad, then or (C7)don’t you e ven (F)care? Don’t want your love an y more. Don’t want your kiss es, that’s for sure. I die each (Dm)time I hear this (Bb)sound. Here he (F)comes. That’s Cath y’s clown. When you see me shed a clown.
