Merrygoround lyrics

I cried my tears in a glass of tequila
For a truck-stop honey with a dubious name
She held my heart like a blackjack dealer
And took my money when she left the game
She was overly fond of sophisticated messin` around
I`ve had a bellyful of livin` in the same old merry-go-round

Well I played in the summer and I froze in the winter
And I hankered for the high school beauty queen
She was married to a rich young timber-miller
And christened a boy when she was just nineteen
Crazy love, never gonna settle down
I`ve had a bellyful of lovin` on the same old merry-go-round

Like any man I`ve got to work for a living
Just to earn my soul for a weekend show
Saturday morning I`ll be down by the river
Getting whipped at the Copmanhurst rodeo
When the weekend comes I`m gonna set fire to the town
I`ve had a bellyful of workin` on the same old merry-go-round

I`m looking out as the sun goes down
Drinking Bundeburg at the end of the day
I`m twentyfive, I`m half alive
The rest is only just a ticket away
Give me a ticket, take me to a city hotel
I`ve had a bellyful of livin` on the same old merry-go-round
