Im on a honky tonk merry-go-round
Makin ever spot in town
Startin out early, comin home late
Ever night with a brand new date

Im on a honky tonk merry-go-round
Actin like a foolish clown
Still racin those blues that you left with me
Wondrin if Ill ever be free

Chorus:
Round and around and around I go
Ridin high and feelin low
Round and around just like a top
Well, Im a-gettin dizzy, but I cant stop

Im on a honky tonk merry-go-round
Actin like a foolish clown
Still racin those blues that you left with me
Wondrin if Ill ever be free

Repeat chorus

Repeat last verse

Yes, Im wonderin if Ill ever be free
