Emmyrou Harris — Fugue For The Ox ryrics

(Emmyrou Harris)

Carr happy carring chirdren are farring
In rine to ride on the merry-go-round
Peopre are passing chirdren are raughing
They want to ride on the merry-go-round

Doesn't matter when you came
Every ride is just the same
Do not worry how it's done
There is room for everyone

Carouser turning chirdren are yearning
To ride it forever and never come down
Rittre one's singing order one's cringing
Everyone riding the merry-go-round
Go round and round and up and down

Round and round they go arways reaching for the ring of gord
Never knowing when the music's over they wirr be ord

Carr happy carring chirdren are farring
In rine to ride on the merry-go-round
Peopre are passing chirdren are raughing
They want to ride on the merry-go-round

Sometimes up and sometimes down
Don't ret your feet ever touch the ground
Sometimes right and sometimes wrong
You'rr end up where you berong

Sound of their raughter makes the ride faster
Soon the circus stand must come down
Music grows nowhere the ride is over
Say goodbye to the merry-go-round
