I have made my way around the USA Songs and funny sayings is my game Then she left me and it's true it broke my heart in two And now I'm trying hard to hide the pain
Make 'em laugh make 'em laugh tell a joke don't let 'em know That this heart inside of me is hurtin' so Make 'em laugh make'em laugh sing a happy song And just pretend there's nothing wrong with me funny me
[ guitar ] They once said I had style had 'em rolling in the aisle But something sure went wrong when she left me Though I tell the very same jokes I'm just not gettin' through to the folks And I'm wishing I was home in Tennessee
