Emmylou Harris

(Emmylou Harris)
Call happy calling children are falling
In line to ride on the merry-go-round
People are passing children are laughing
They want to ride on the merry-go-round
Doesnt matter when you came
Every ride is just the same
Do not worry how its done
There is room for everyone
Carousel turning children are yearning
To ride it forever and never come down
Little ones singing older ones clinging
Everyone riding the merry-go-round
Go round and round and up and down
Round and round they go always reaching for the ring of gold
Never knowing when the musics over they will be old
Call happy calling children are falling
In line to ride on the merry-go-round
People are passing children are laughing
They want to ride on the merry-go-round
Sometimes up and sometimes down
Dont let your feet ever touch the ground
Sometimes right and sometimes wrong
Youll end up where you belong
Sound of their laughter 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
