"Laughing Man" Lyrics

Susie take that hair down girl
and take that shadow off your eye
startin' to look like hollywood
like someone i don't recognize
but you don't have to go down that road
cause that ain't what it's all about

take it from the laughing man
take it from the laughing man
you're the animal
you're the stranger

Billy put that gun down boy
you're too young to play with fire
your daddy treats it like a toy
now all he can see is bars
but you don't have to go down that road
cause that ain't what it's all about

take it from the laughing man
take it from the laughing man
you're the animal
you're the stranger

She says "hey joe, there's something you don't need to show"
"it's okay joe, cause I already know"
"I know, I know"

take it from the laughing man
take it from the laughing man
oh, laughing man
yeah, laughing man
stranger, stranger
